The pull of not knowing who is next
Think about the last time you went somewhere new and ended up talking to a stranger. The bus stop, the airport gate, the queue at a food truck. It stuck because you did not plan it. Nobody had a profile and nobody was trying to impress you.
Random video chat recreates that moment on a screen. The not-knowing is the whole feature. A face appears, a voice says hello, and for the next minute or ten you are both just making it up.
