In this day and age, there are many ways to connect with others and even those who are on the other side of the globe. With the advancement of technology, avenues have opened up left and right to allow people to do more things than they ever imagined. Over the past decade, the World Wide Web has evolved into one of the most innovative ways to make life easier for everyone and open up endless opportunities for more people. The Internet is a great place to meet new people, make new friends, and connect with old friends as well. This is the reason why we see many websites that are specially made to facilitate communication and interaction a lot  Chatroulette. One way to stay in touch is through web chat. Many programs are specifically designed to fit the needs of people browsing the web. There are even those sites that are specifically customized for what Internet users are searching for.

One such example is Omegle. This is a website that hosts online chatting with people and strangers. It picks the website at random and pairs you up with a stranger with whom you can have a one-on-one conversation. This site was created by an 18-year-old from Brattleboro, Vermont. Use the word Omegle as an alternative word for Omega. Here you can chat with a complete stranger and you will remain anonymous to each other unless you decide to give information about yourself. Additionally, the website has a video chat option which may also be blocked if you are not comfortable showing your appearance to the stranger you are talking to. Although this site also suffers from controversy, it is recommended that young people stay away from the site until they are of legal age and are more responsible.

Like Omegle, there is also another website in Russia that uses the same basic concept. This website was also created by a seventeen year old teenage high school student from Moscow, Russia named Andrey Ternovskiy. The website uses video conferencing as a way to pair up random strangers where users can automatically click on the next button if they want to chat with someone else. Most of the people encountered on the site are from America and Europe  Omegle. With a small investment, creator Andrey Ternovskiy was running this site from his bedroom at home and earning the site by advertising links to online websites.
