Omegle

Omegle is a website introduced to Current Events in 2009 which lets you randomly chat with strangers. It has become notorious for instant disconnections as soon as one says he or she is a male as well as the amazing number of pedophiles and perverts. It has become beloved by CE and the imageboard 4chan as a place to troll.

In 2010, Omegle added a video chat feature to compete with similar website Chatroulette. While Omegle was popular when CE first discovered it, its novelty has somewhat died down, and it isn't nearly as popular with CE as it used to be. Nonetheless, it still usually has a good number of topics about it at a time.
