Chat Roulette is the latest sensation to take the internet by storm. As is the case with all internet technology, it could hold some benefit for online casino operators – and they are certainly considering the option.
ChatRoulette was thought up by a 17-year-old named Andrei Ternovskiy. Sort of like online speed dating, users can randomly cycle through chats with users from around the globe. They can interact with each other face-to-face and at any time, the other person can choose to chat with a new person.
Many online casinos are looking for ways to implement this sort of technology to gain new players and based promotions on. Live dealers have been popular for years, but Chat Roulette technology may give players the chance to interact with one another – rather than with a single dealer. The possibilities are endless, especially in creative environments like online poker.
Of course, before anything is implemented, operators will have to determine the best course of action to carry out this new technology. In the online gambling industry, there are a lot of regulations that operators must adhere to, and the notion of video chatting brings along with it a whole other set of rules and regulations.
