view-source: loading four js libraries just to show one line of text?
I call this the textmate syndrom. It is too easy to have text programs today give you a standard start to your webpages with just a few hotkeys.

Welcome to Web 3.0.
That's funny.
Ever since chatroulette has been down, my site, http://www.boostcam.com, which I had made as an experiment when flash 10.0 was still in beta and the p2p functionality was just released, has been getting a lot of traffic. I think people think it's a chatroulette clone (it's not). I watch as people wait, in vain, for someone else to join their chat.

Why so? This article doesn't reveal anything new... I think the poster was asking whether Chatroulette is abandoned, since the new version was announced to be running "tomorrow", then "today", and then "shortly"...while it is already several day in this state.

Ever heard of CSS sprites? The initial load of the mic-off image and the like could easily be avoided.
They put up the announcement last week and it said a new version would be released "tomorrow". Obviously, that didn't happen, but it seems like a new version is immenent.
if need a similar site, try omegle.com
"acquired" by some Russian men in power, I guess. ^_^
