I'm gonna program a site like Omegle but with as many conversational partners as you want! A place to meet many people and just chill out. I dunno if I should learn nodejs or python/twisted though. What you think?

Yeah, where people can join in and discuss specific topics pseudonymously! That's a revolutionary idea! You could call it something like Internet Relay Chat.

I don't know for the name yet. I think it needs to be more catchy but I will decide later
what is the best for something like this? nodejs or twisted? ruby?

If you are going to program it, you should know what language to use.

Why not make an IRCd where each connected client gets a tripcode for a nick and /NICK does nothing, and then use some already existing javascript IRC client on your site. Consider how linked IRC servers will behave in this anonymous system. Then, open source it under a dual license of AGPL and Xarn Public License.
Erlang is obviously the best language for this IMHO.
OP if you're actually considering this for real, consider the IRCd path, you can code to an RFC, and can debug your server with any IRC client. As I remember it, IRC's protocol is dead simple: COMMAND word word word :Rest of line with spaces
and :user COMMAND word word word :Rest of line with spaces
You'll end reinventing all of IRC anyway, you'll need to manage connected clients, manage channels, ping out dead connections and protect from floods.
