Dating scams and fake profiles. Sounds familiar? It certainly takes the fun out of dating. Lets101 is a free online dating site that has recently implemented a technological development that will put an end to fake profiles and dating scams. They have introduced mandatory phone confirmation of member profiles, using VoIP technology, in order to be sure every profile is authentic.

"Phone confirmation adds gravity to the quality of profiles on Lets101. Serious members really don't mind confirming their phone number. We can almost assure that every single message sent on lets101 is from an authentic member."

This is very good news, since dating scams have been a thorn in everyone's eye, especially those who have had the misfortune of sharing their information and feelings with someone who turned out to be a fake.

"After introducing this check, we are seeing a drastic drop in the number of messages that are classified as spam by our system. Number of customer support emails about abuse has gone down to almost zero. This also makes sure that members are serious about dating and are looking for a real relationship. Free online dating experience has just become a lot safer and more pleasant."

Lets101 offers its members direct phone communication and voice mails keeping the members' phone numbers confidential. Apart from the usual stuff, there is also the advanced chemistry test which relies on an advanced program that analyzes people's psychological preferences and subconscious type and pairs this with the chemistry match.

Sounds pretty serious, so if you've been waiting for a safer online dating solution, this just might be it.

Crush or Flush is a social network that allows members to rate each other by expressing a crush or doing a flush. Basically, a more moderate way of telling someone "you suck" or alternatively "hey, I like you"

In many ways Crush or Flush is similar to Hot or Not. Naturally, the whole point is not only to rate someone. It's only part of a much bigger system that allows you to make friends, chat, exchange pictures and flirt. Best of all, the system is available on the go through a mobile phone.

They say: "We won't charge your phone. You don't need a credit card."

OK, I guess this means registration is free. The process is quite simple - upload your photo, add a description (ex. hot babe), state whether you are looking for men or women, and that's about it. Then just start crushing and flushing. The word is it's very addictive. Interested?

No, it's not a bad joke! Ok, maybe , but it goes to show companies, as well as people, like to be in a relationship with those with whom they have something in common. Penthouse, the long time publisher of erotic and pornographic content, but also lifestyle content as well, has officially bought Various Inc. This company was the owner of one of the more famous dating services for adults - Adult Friend Finder, and now the dating service, along with other Various Inc. dating properties, is in the hands of Penthouse. Marc H. Bell, CEO of Penthouse Media Group, said the goal was to provide consumers, particularly 18-to-34-year-old men, with a wide variety of sex-related offerings in magazines, in videos and online.

So, do we get to meet any of the gorgeous Penthouse Pets on Adult Friend Finder?

No, seriously.

"Some man you just can't reach…"

That was the first thing that came to my mind while I was reading an article on PR-Inside that suggests Slash is tired of dating porn stars.

And while on some level we can understand him — or not — he argues that after some time, sex with a porn star can become repetitive. "It starts to feel like you're making a movie every time you have sex," he added.

Well, good luck to Slash in doing whatever he's going to do next. We still enjoy listening him doing his "guitar thing" from time to time…

Don't you just love the technology and the way it improves our lives? It was the technology that hooked up a Russian Jew and an Afghan Muslim to make a website about relationships. And what seems as the duo of opposites have created a new kind of online dating service which relies solely on video. Instead of reading profiles, users of SayHeyHey.com can watch people's videos, and if they like the person they're watching - they can send an introduction video.

Sounds cool, doesn't it? No wonder it already attracted a fan base from its beta phase. And in case you want to go really high-tech, you can use SayHeyHey.com's "matching" function which uses some super-secret algorithm. They say it works, and we're eager to hear your thoughts…
