Rounds - Fun. Together. Now.
Rounds is a cross platform environment for hanging out live and doing stuff together with friends and new people of interest. Rounds’ members are able to video chat in real time while engaging in various fun social activities and real-time games. The platform is available on www.rounds.com and through the Facebook application, Video Chat Rounds (http://apps.facebook.com/chatrounds).
Rounds’ approach differs from other online chat options because of its focus on genuinely replicating a real life conversation. Over 3M registered users currently use Rounds’ platform to share online experiences – they play real-time games, take funny snapshots of themselves, watch YouTube videos, share Facebook and Flickr photos, listen to music and spend time together, as if they were all sitting in the same room.
