Ask HN: is there any chatroulette for hackers?

[anothertodd]

Just a bit curious if there's chatroulette for hackers.

I think that's kinda fun to talk with random hackers. I always wish I'm at meetups but we can't go to meetups everyday, everytime. so I just think this would be fun.. :P

It's called IRC.

I'm on some IRC channels almost all day long but I just want some kind of extensive random chat :)

[athesyn]

Can you recommend any hacker channels?

[mtogo]

#startups on irc.freenode.net is HN's irc channel, for one.

HackRoulette? Could this be done with Goole+ hangouts? I think I'll have a look into this.

google+ should require to add people to circles. so it's not random. I think this could be fun. not like IRC, totally random and refreshing really quickly.
