I don't want to be matched up chatting with friends (I can do that anytime) and I don't really want total strangers (it gets creepy and dirty). However, this could be great if it connects you to friends of friends. You could then spend the time figuring out how you two are connected.
Interesting idea. Since this is a bit less anonymous than Chatroulette, I'd imagine that there'll be less nudity and other shock imagery. Although, I'm sure there will definitely still be some.
I'm curious if any dating sites have tried (or succeeded) doing something like this. Seems like it might work - kind of an "online" bar atmosphere where you're free to wander around meeting new people face to face.
This may be the new trend on speed dating 2.0. It would be cool if you could choose the ambient where you want to hang out: Facebook, Twitter, BeautifulPeople, etc.
According to that interview that was posted here with the kid who runs it; he covers all costs with a few ads on the page. No idea how, but I guess that it works for him.

No biggie for me personally but it might be worth being aware of!
