This Thursday May 20th, 2010 TangoWire will be offering their popular Virtual Dating (vDate) for free on all of their dating sites. On the last free Virtual Dating Event (see Story) they experienced over 30 times more singles using the feature. Virtual Dating offers members a better way to get to know each other before meeting in real life.
Harvard and MIT researchers recently proved that online dating service members reacted more positively toward individuals after Virtual Dating experiences compared to simply reading profiles or exchanging emails and chatting. Virtual Dating also led to more face to face meetings and more second dates, due in part to the increased comfort level for both parties.
Virtual dating allows interaction between members with 3D avatars. Members can pick the location (restaurant, beach, museum, etc...) and then communicate directly with each other. Members can also listen to music and play games on their virtual date.
The last free vDate experience was at the beginning of April (see Story). To find out some more about this event, read the press release[*1] .
