Response to Simona's "Roulette Russian"

This article was amusing. Not so much in a "ha ha" sort of way, but because I've read to very few avid descriptions of websites, blogs, or in this case, chat roulette. I've never been on chat roulette myself, but Ioffe explains the system quite well.

It's difficult to write extensively on such a subject, so Ioffe's piece turns into a profile of Andrey, the creator of chat roulette. That's when things get interesting - when human interactions/motivations are brought to a piece, the personality of an individual. I feel Ioffe does an excellent job characterizing Andrey and his family, his history, and his trip to America. At the end of the profile, however, I was left without a sense of Andrey's decided purpose. Obviously, he's going to take chat roulette and coding as far as it will take him in the states, but now that he's here, I want to get details on the difficulties he's faced and the interactions he's had, not just phrases like "the sunshine was heaven" or he went to "visit Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore." What was that conversation like between Andrey and the celebrity couple. Details like that would be intriguing and may flesh out the remainder of the story.
