Link to ChanceChat.comThis is a bit of a strange idea- you enter age and gender and similar for whom you’d like to talk to and it connects you.

Its nicely implemented but on the odd occasions I’ve tried it, I’ve found no one as the message above shows. It reminds me of the old joke “You’ve got two chances- fat chance and no chance!”. Hopefully more publicity will encourage people to try it.

There’s a strange appeal to it- sort of like being in a deserted building and hearing a phone ringing in an old disused room. Who is phoning and why?

If you have ever read the book “Wisdom of Crowds” by James Suriewicki, this might give you an idea of what vosnap is about.

Its an easy way, using social networking to ask others what their opinion of something you are planning to do or thinking about. E.g. Someone asked ““Should I get drunk on my flight to MIA tomorrow?”” - the results were “Duh”, “yes” and “never”? You have to register to use this site.

It’s a novel concept though having one website for this, something which could probably easily be incorporated into other social networking sites seems a bit limiting.
