Is it time for a Swedish chatroom?

As you may know my Project Sweden includes learning the Swedish language. So far I've joined a language school and I'm following a learn-Swedish-at-home programme. I feel like it's going quite well, on the other hand I wasn't hoping on having an actual conversation any time soon...

The key word here is "wasn't," because that was before I was inspired by the following TED talk:



Even as I'm writing this I'm
terrified. That's good, right?
Hearing all this, I'm now considering trying an actual conversation in Swedish. I think Google+ Hangouts are a great tool we could use: several talking heads, having a conversation from the comfort of our own home and practising Swedish at the same time!

Would anyone care to have a short conversation with me? It will only take a few minutes and there would only be one rule: No English allowed!

Thinking about this, we could host a chatroom of sorts. There are five other enthusiastic learners in my Swedish class who should be interested in this sort of thing.
Skulle du vara intresserad av att ha en kort konversation på svenska?
Do you think this is a good idea, could it work? Please get in touch over email or Google+ or leave a comment!
