Omegle: http://omegle.com/

Talking to random people has never been so fun. Once you get past the paedophiles and the spambots and the trolls, it can be a very serious and good way to make new friends. Alternatively, you can counter-troll and engage in topics that break the internet (I... *cough* broke the server for a few seconds at one point. Four people were on the site next to me when I copy-pasted an entire window and then repeated and repeated. All of the Omegle windows on everyone's screen froze solid).

It's a crazy idea, but it's rapidly become one of my favourite sites. Tom Francis from PC Gamer UK mentioned it on his blog, which was how I discovered it: http://www.pentadact.com/index.php/2009-03-31-conversations-with-strangers#comments
