Lissn.com reminds me of a far more polished "chatroulette for text" except I was able to talk to a lady in Japan for half an hour about the recent tragedy on Lissn, and I didn't have to disclose my cellphone number to anybody or get billed for using the service.
- baberuth 15y agoLissn is blowing up with HN users right now. Its quite nice. Sort of like 2-3 person IRC chat rooms. Not sure what the real value is, but its fun for the moment.
- citricsquid 15y agoI'm really enjoying this, it's an excellent idea. I think with tweaks and expansions it could be great.

- lissn 15y agoThanks for the post! Our goal is to create the best conversation platform for having good conversations, so if you had (or lissned to) a good conversation, we have done our job. :) I've talked with people from Egypt during their protests, Libya during their conflicts and Japan after their quake. It's been a sporadic, fun initial community (currently the site is taken over by people from Taiwan). We're releasing a new feature each week based off user feedback. It's been interesting, as our plan has changed by the week. Started with an MVP, listened to the customer & building out. Hope to see you guys around lissn :)
