Is AirTime A Game Changer?
People enjoy random online encounters, if they didn’t, chat rooms wouldn’t have been so huge, and neither would ChatRoulette (though the naked dude thing killed it). The two gentlemen that started the revolutionary music sharing service Napster are looking to capitalize on this apparently inherent human trait.
Sean Parker and Shawn Fanning have taken a concept inspired by ChatRoulette, eliminated the dicks that ruined the experience, and fine tuned the match-making process to connect people worldwide in ways we never imagined. Networking and meeting new people is huge in the 21st century; instead of chance encounters out in public or going to events, Parker and Fanning hope you’ll hop on AirTime to connect with friends of friends, or random people with one of your tens, hundreds or thousands of similar interests.
