We built this site using off-the-shelf technology in under a day (because we thought it would be fun). Spent another day to add some weird/strange/uncanny features. Now it needs some people to take it for a spin! Comments appreciated.

I recently went here. It is amusing. Everyone I tried to speak to spoke Dutch. Ik sprek een kliene beetje nederlands, but every conversation went the same: &#60;translated from dutch&#62; S1: hai me: hello S1: A/S/L ? me: 32, male, US &#60;this stranger has left the chatroom&#62;<p>It reminds me of IRC back in 96. Strangely addicting though, because even though I didnt get any meaningful conversation, I couldnt stop attempting to initiate conversations.
