23 More Chatroulette Alternatives To Go

I have around 23 more Chatroulette alternatives in my bookmarks, but they're using pretty much the same script and I'm not sure if they are using the same pool of people, would be pretty pointless posting them if they're all the same network. I'll check them over time.

What I think I'll do later on is post some of the great video chat services I have on my list, these aren't random chats like CR, just chat rooms with webcams.

Tinychat Next

Tinychat Next is another big boy who decided to copy Chatroulette. I could never get this one to work for the longest time, but now I can.

I get the feeling if Chatroulette was never around, Tinychat probably would have been a lot more successful as they were gaining in popularity, CR became viral and overshadowed the buggers hehe.

Update: Tinychat is still going strong, but their spinoff, Tinychat Next is no more, could never get it to work anyway.

Stickam Shuffle

Stickam Shuffle, what can I say, stickam one of the largest video chat sites around had to go and copy Chatroulette, plenty of people, stable, but at times very very slow.

Catapapo

Catapapo is a Brazilian Chatroulette clone I think, seems like quite a few people using it, though I think it made my browser crash.

Update: Catapapo.com.br no longer seems to be accessible, not to sure how long this has been going on, could be permanent.

Barstoolcam

Barstoolcam says it has around a thousand people using it, but when I try to connect it says all users engaged in chat or something like that.

Update: I used to really enjoy Barstoolcam.com, pity it's no longer in service.

Spinthecam

Spinthecam at the moment isn't connecting for me so I can't really say what kind of numbers are using it. Seems like a lot of these Chatroulette alternatives are having this problem lately.

Update: Spinthecam.com seems to be no more.

Heyreddit

Heyreddit seems to have never more than 3 people on at any given time, other than that just another run of the mill Chatroulette clone.

Update: Heyreddit.com doesn't seem to offer random chat anymore.

Stirchat

Stirchat is kind of neat looking, though I haven't been able to connect to it. It's got some interesting leader board features.

Do You Guys Want Me To List The Bad CR Alternatives

Just wondering if anyone wants me to list all the crappy Chatroulette alternatives I've found on my mission. Don't worry I've got plenty of good ones to post, just don't know what to do with all the bad ones I've bookmarked.

Chatpig

Chatpig has a nice style about it, only a couple hundred people when I was on, more than most others I've seen. Fast and stable.

Tipitty

Tipitty is a Spanish site like Chatroulette, seems like plenty of people on there, pretty fast and stable, very basic options.

Hey-People

Hey-People is freaking flash, plenty of bells and whistles. There seems to be a decent amount of people using it and it seems pretty fast and stable, but there is quite an annoying animation between zapping people (nexting).

Bazoocam

Bazoocam is fast, stable and has lots of people using it, mostly French. Didn't really think this one would be any good, but I'm surprised by it.

How To Record Chatroulette Free And Easy

So you want to record video of your Chatroulette adventures, well you've come to the right place, it's not as hard as you may think.

Below is a simple guide on how to record Chatroulette, best of all it's free and easy.

How To Record Chatroulette

First you'll want to download a free piece of software called CamStudio, after that install it, open it and you're ready to record.

First make sure to check that region is checked in the region menu, hit record and drag a box around the area you want to record, in this case probably the Chatroulette video window.

When you're ready to stop recording, click the stop button, name and save it and your newly recorded video will begin to play and that's it, you're done.

Things to note
As with most screen recording software the resulting video files can be huge so it may pay to look at some settings tutorials on youtube, there are plenty of configurations to set, in the end it's all about personal choice.

Here are the settings I use

I'm Not Even Halfway Through My List Of Chatroulette Alternatives

I'm not even halfway through my list of Chatroulette alternatives yet, for sure there's a lot of junk out there, so I'm taking my time to use them first so I can report on if they're any good.

And if I ever do run out of sites like Chatroulette to blog about, don't worry, I have a very big list of more traditional video chat services to share.

Moveyourcam

Moveyourcam is for the most part in French though that doesn't distract from the ease of use. There seems be a lot of people on at any given time, though it does seem a tiny bit slow to me.

Update: Moveyourcam.com looks to be kaput.

ChatRevolve

ChatRevolve seems a bit buggy to me, though it looks so simple. It says there's about 1000 people on it, though when I click next it says all users are currently engaged in chat, doesn't seem likely to me.

Mychanceromance

Mychanceromance looks the part, looks nice and has got some interesting looking features, but as it always seems, there's just nobody using it.

VideoEncounter

Time for some more Chatroulette alternatives, I may scraping the bottom of the barrel here, but maybe I missed a gem.

VideoEncounter is quite a nice looking CR like site, seems fast, seems stable, the only problem is I've never seen another person using it.
