For 138 years Lady Liberty watched over us — now it’s time to return the favor.
Ben Popper, writing for The Verge:
Airtime is a browser based video chat service, like Chatroulette, that lets you seamlessly talk with friends and people who share your interests, but unlike Chatroulette, uses Facebook Connect to ensure people’s real identities and hopefully keep their pants on.
I love how the screenshot of Airtime in actual use shows two guys whose Facebook Connect real identities are “Anonymous” and “Anonymous”.
Over at BuzzFeed, Matt Buchanan writes the best sentence of the day:
Airtime periodically snaps screenshots of users to make sure the thing talking isn’t a penis.
