It's certainly the hot Internet phenomenon of the moment, though, and we wanted to pair it up with an older meme that shares Chatroulette's philosophy of randomness: Hot or Not.

Both sites are difficult to lump into a single category, and both have been accused of being little more than fads of passing Internet fancy. In Chatroulette, being "nexted" is somewhat akin to being "notted" on Hot or Not. Both sites are based on very simple mechanisms at the core, and both embody the general spirit of Internet randomness many of us know and love -- perhaps to the detriment of our attention spans.
