Search and Find Love but Maybe Not
September 13, 2015
My trusty alert service delivered me this search gem: “13 Apps 17 Dates 30 Days: I Tried 13 Dating Apps in 30 Days in Search of Love.” Shadows of Ashley Madison could not obscure this clickable topic.
Here’s what I learned:
- There are sites with interesting names with which I was not familiar. Here are two examples Jack’D and Scruff.
- Dating apps can be used to deliver ads. Love for someone I assume.
- Finding love takes “time and energy.” Yep, just like my notions for information access.
- Some love search apps ask users to involve their Twitter followers. Now that’s a great idea for some folks.
Main point of the write up: Love apps don’t work. Wow, revelation.
