I’m surprised you didn’t felt the same street-performance like mood as danah (and I, and many others) felt: I guess the inflation of visual props —from enjoying smiles, to welcoming stuffed animals, to considering them easy— is closer to that subsection of 4chan you are not suppose to talk about, or to any closed on-line community for bored people, for that matter.

I have to confirm, though: it’s far less appealing as it is then Omegle (or any text-based community) where deception is rampant. It might become much cooler if rules develop to frame amusing behaviour—but I doubt it. I’m very surprised by the (non-)use of sound, for instance, and I’m not sure how to encourage talking. It also might, like Omegle emerge as a time-zone-segregated group.
