Another mobile dating related application, FriendsAndFlirt is a free mobile social and dating, IM, chat, and messaging community which works as a location based service. All friends (users) are able to connect with other friends around the world and share pictures, sounds, photos, from their mobile device.

The way it works is that users have to download/install a J2ME (Java Mobile) client to their mobile device, which gives users an interface for easy browsing and communication with everyone who's registered and online. A great usage scenario would be if you're a traveler… Any time, anywhere in the world you'd be able to find people with a compatible profile. If you need a recommendation for a place to stay, or want to know all the stuff you should see while there, or just want to get in touch with local friends and have a drink and a chat, FriendsAndFlirt will be a useful tool. And finally, if you happen to like a certain member, you can always use the service for flirting and establishing a relationship that could easily grow into a romantic relationship.

In order to use this service, users need to have an internet enabled mobile device with one of the supported connection methods - GPRS, UMTS, WiFi, etc).

Sounds like it's something worth installing on your mobile phone. If you're interested head on over to FriendsAndFlirt.com and download the required Java files and you're set. All that remains is to find a profile of members you think are interesting and start flirting.

The free online dating site SinglesPlease.com today opened its virtual doors for everyone looking for a relationship or simply someone to hang out with. Under the tagline "Free Introductions Network", the new dating service is intelligently designed to "simulate the way that people meet in real life," and it eliminates the hassles of wondering if an attraction is mutual.

The so called "web 2.0 check mark system", allows members to express their interest in hundreds of singles in just minutes. When a match is made, members can message each other from inside the site and exchange contact information freely…

The way I see it, the site looks pretty simple to use. You need to register and once you do it, you're ready to go. Good luck!

What happens when a creator of the popular Family Guy series starts seeing a vampire slayer? He starts thinking about vampire's family, that's what!

Just kidding, but apparently Buffy the Vampire Slayer actress Eliza Dushku is reportedly dating Seth MacFarlane, the "guy behind the Family Guy". According to reports (don't you just "love" 'em), the pair has been dating in secret for weeks after hooking up in Los Angeles.

A friend tells OK! magazine, "They met through mutual friends. They're enjoying each other's company so far. He makes her laugh a lot and she really enjoys good laughs and good conversation." Sound like a good start…

Over at DNA India, Ismat Tahseen prepared an interesting article about the benefits of blind dating. My idea is not to steal their audience, rather to recap the thoughts written in the article. Let's roll…

• First there's the excitement. Usually you do know something about a person you're about to meet, but you don't know everything. As far as you're concerned, he or she may be a secret agent, a circus performer, or an aristocrat going incognito. It's most likely you'll meet yet another average person, but hey we're all human beings and like to dream.
• Then there's creativity involved. Actually, it's more of an option, but isn't this the perfect opportunity to try-out a new hairstyle or a dazzling outfit, something you wouldn't wear with someone who knows you.
• Romance is the third parameter according to Ismat. We all — women especially — dream of her perfect "stranger in the night" and this might be the opportunity to meet him. As for the guys, you did ask for her "specs" and photos, right?
• Hope comes forth, as you're thinking that a blind date could break the current pattern of sleeping, eating and working. It doesn't have to, and usually doesn't, but you can hope. Who knows where you could go with this Mr or Ms X.
• Finally the whole anonymity can be sexy for itself. The person you're seeing doesn't know you, hence you can be completely different person, at least on the start.

Would you like to be able to join local mobile communities that already exist? V-Cirles Dating has the answer in form of a mobile phone application that allows you to do just that, and also lets you form your own community if you wish. Consider the following scenario they gave to illustrate how the service works:

"Jackie lives in Chelsea but finds it hard to meet decent guys. She downloads V-CIRCLES DATING for free and simply joins a mobile dating V-Circle named West End V-Circle. She then goes out on a few dates with some of the guys in the V-Circle but reckons they ain't good enough for her. She then decides to form her own private dating V-Circle called Chelsea Singles to improve the quality. Using the application, she invites 5 of her best friends to join Chelsea Singles. They download the free application, and join her V-CIRCLE. Her friends then invite their friends to join the V-CIRCLE too. Now there are over 200 like-minded people living in the Chelsea area who are part of her V-CIRCLE. Jackie and her friends arrange all their dates through the Chelsea Singles. Jackie prefers V-CIRCLES DATING over other dating communities as people can only join by invitation only and she can arrange all her dates discretely on her mobile phone."

As mentioned, V-Circles is a Java mobile application available for free download. Definitely an interesting approach to using mobile technology for the purpose of socializing and dating.
