Well, it's not only a dating search engine. It's actually a search engine for finding individuals who have profiles on many social networks that are out there, but it's quite easily used for searching for a date. Currently, the search engine retrieves results from these sources - 43 Things, AIM, BEBO, BlackPlanet, Blurty, BookOfMatches, Digg, Espin, Facebook, Flickr, Fotolog, Friendster, Google Talk, Greatest Journal, HI5, Hot or Not, ICQ Messenger, IMVU, Jabber Messenger, Jaiku, LavaPlace, LiveJournal, Meetup, MocoSpace, MSN Messenger, Myspace, NetLog, OkCupid, Paltalk, PlentyofFish, Skype, Stickam, StumbleUpon, Tagged, Tribe, Twitter, Veoh, VOX, WAYN, Webdate, Xanga, Yahoo Personals, YahooIM, YouTube, Zwinky… and they say plenty more are coming in the following months.

There is a simple search interface on BuddyFetch - it lets you enter keywords (best to use personal traits of a person you'd be interested in), select sex (male, female, both), and age. I tried a few simple searches plenty of results pertaining to people interested in dating, although I must point out that some of the results shown are a bit "spam" looking. You can also add your own profile to let the service know where your social profile can be found (basically choose from a list of all the services mentioned earlier). They also ask for your email address, which threw me off a bit - a source network and screen name on that network should be enough.

If you've got a couple of minutes, give BuddyFetch a try and do tell us your impressions.

One is called Are You Interested and the other is Flirst With Me. Both are aimed at MySpace users, and are available as applications at MySpace.

Also, this application integrates a Flirt With Me profile box onto profiles to allow anyone who visits a MySpace page to send flirt messages.

The overall goal of SNAP Interactive was to create a fun online dating environment and enhance the experience for singles on MySpace. So, if you're a MySpace member, here are the links towards these two applications:

Maxim, the famous men's lifestyle magazine, has partnered with WhiteLabelDating.com to launch its own branded dating service for men. Maxim readers can get to the dating site through a link on the main site (haven't found the link there yet, so maybe it's coming soon). The new dating site offers potential dates from a vast network of 18-35 year old women, maybe even the next cover-girl. That would be very nice

WhiteLabelDating.com will initially give Maxim readers access to its very large existing database of members, while encouraging them to sign-up themselves.

A new site has come out which caters to the smartest people of society only. This only accounts for 15% of people. This means that people who join this site are extremely intelligent. It is thought that people who are intelligent find it easier to connect with people who are equally intellectual.

This site was created for people with high I.Q.'s to find partners who suit them, and are on the same level. Though it's exclusive in terms of intelligence - location, education and social status do not act as a barrier.

Fernie Jenser, the founder of IntelligentPeople.com says, "Intelligent people usually want a partner who is also intelligent. Everyone wants someone they can talk to." Jenson also believes, "At general dating sites, you have to spend time and energy, sorting through profiles to find the ones who suit the criterion. At IntelligentPeople.com we already made that sorting for you."

If you want to become a member of IntelligentPeople.com, you have to pass an I.Q. test. The test can only be taken twice to prevent those people, who are not truly intelligent, from joining the site. So, if you are smart and looking for a date you should check out this site.

Randomate.com, the one-man operation from Canada, released their speed dating Facebook app called Speed Dating 2.0, which makes it very easy for everyone to engage in their five minute online speed dating sessions.

Instead of normally taking time to go through hundreds of profiles, this app tries to simplify and speed up the process by putting emphasis on conversation. Users simply choose from the available options to narrow down the number of people with whom to make contact. The app then sets up speed dating sessions and engages the user with selected members in communication right away. Since it's a Facebook app, this becomes a social network speed dating hybrid, which should yield its users some very interesting results. Since social networks and dating sites are steadily becoming one and the same, this application will probably do well, after all there are only millions of members on Facebook.

Registration is free, so give Speed Dating 2.0 a try.
