Looks like the chatroulette bubble is starting again with a PlusRoulette for Google Hangouts, this could get interesting!

Since Google allows 10 people in a Google Plus Hangout, it'll be pretty neat joining a random group of 10 strangers!

http://gphangouts.com is way way better than this thing! Even has a bookmarklet to easily add whilst browsing Google Plus.

That would be neat, but you'll have to be satisfied with joining a group of at most 9 strangers...

Some people are strangers to themselves.

I like the serendipity of Hangout. If you do it for your friends circles, you could meet new people through your friends (because their friends will see they joined a Hangout). So it's very much like in real life where you meet with a group of friends and they introduce you to some of their friends.

Very true. I guess plusroulette is more spontaneous.

I recently had a "Google+ Chatroulette" session with a few friends through gphangouts.com. It was fun, but most of the participants weren't interested in taking part and just watched us talking. Between 70 and 80 people joined the hangout, half of those either had their camera disabled or had no camera at all. We managed to have only one conversation with a stranger that lasted over 5 minutes.

Umm. "Hey, let's maximize our one-day traffic spike by polluting our pages with AdWords to the point where it's impossible to tell what is a legitimate interface element!"

First impressions are everything, and this spammed-up approach is ruining any long-term gains you really should be shooting for.
