What is Urban Signals?
How does it work?
Urban Signals’ innovative platform leverages the benefits of online dating, while integrating social, dating and gaming elements that encourage spontaneous connection between singles. Urban Signals broadcasts a user’s location with the application’s unique radar. The radar shows users the location, mood and status of other singles of interest that are nearby. Similar to online dating, these singles are determined by the user’s preferences.
Give MG an example, please!
A woman interested in men between the ages of 25-40 will only be notified when other users of interest to her, are in her area. She can then learn more about them by viewing profiles that offer just enough details to inform, intrigue and encourage further action. “Signals” are then exchanged between users to say hello, express interest, or meet up if they share a mutual interest or attraction.
Sounds Intriguing!
Who is the creative genius behind Urban Signals?
From Founder and CEO Aubree Nichols: “Urban Signals began as an observation I continued to witness on New York’s city streets…the problem of missed connections. I didn’t know what the answer was, but I knew it would have to break down that ‘urban armor’ that discourage singles from approaching someone they found attractive or intriguing.”
I want to test this out.
How much does it cost & where can I get it?!?!
Urban Signals is a free download available now for iPhone and iTouch customers, on the iTunes store. All new users are given a 1-month trial of unlimited Signals to learn how to navigate the application. After 30 days, ‘Unlimited Signals’ packs can be purchased monthly for $4.99 per month. source
Ok. It’s free to download & to use for one month. As soon as Verizon gets iPhones, I plan on giving this app a test drive 
p.s. I was not paid to write about this, I just think it’s pretty damn innovative.

Hoping the snowstorm in NYC won’t be too overwhelming & thankful this event is being held in a venue only a block away from my apt – YAY X 100!
