Online bingo operators are striving to make their sites as socialble as possible, and the inevitable outcome of this trend will be the widespread incorporation of bingo cams. So is this a good thing or a bad thing? Well, sort of both. The good is that you will be able to actually see your roomies and share in the excitement when the full house is called. With cam feeds coming from each player, the experience of online bingo sites will begin to mirror that which is experienced in a traditional bingo hall. Furthermore, bingo cams would greatly expand the possibilities when it comes to chat based events.
So what is the downside of bingo cams? Part of the allure of online bingo is that you can "come as you are" and play bingo comfortably from your own home without having to dress appropriately as you would when going to the local bingo hall. However, if bingo cams became the norm, then players would all need to make themselves (and the portion of their homes visible from their cam) presentable. One would imagine that sending a cam feed would be optional for instances when it is not desired.
Social media is one front of battle between bingo site operators, and the other is within the realm of bingo bonuses. Sites are competing against one another to see who can attract players with the best bingo bonuses and free bingo games. RedBus Bingo just rolled out a new initial deposit match program which could result in an astounding 2000% match bingo bonus, and sites like Bingo Cafe feature 20 no deposit bingo offers. For now, you can remain invisible to your bingo roomies - but as social media creeps more and more into online bingo expect your anonymity to begin to fade.
