Dating 2.0: Find Love in Real Time with Urban Signals!

9 Feb, 2010  |  Fashion Tech, Online Dating World, Single Girl Research

I had the opportunity to attend the Urban Signals‘ launch party held downtown (thank you for the invite Jordana!!). The launch party was a fabulush hi-tech soiree filled with beautiful people and a flirtatious ambiance.

But…what was even more fabulush, was the Urban Signals Application itself.

What is Urban Signals?
Urban Signals is a social networking, location-based mobile application that allows you to see people around you, if they’re available, interested and ready to meet up – right there on the spot.

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.
So, dahlings…what are your thoughts/opinions on Urban Signals??? Would you consider using it?

kissies,

p.s. – Tonight is the Fashion 2.0 Social Media Awards!!! So excited to see which Fashion brands win for their exceptional marketing/branding efforts via various social media outlets.
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!

7 Feb, 2010  |  Online Dating World
Who hasn’t Googled something about dating / relationships / love / romance???
This commercial is actually from Nov ’09 but Google execs decided to drop a load a cash – 2.5 million – to have it viewed during the Super Bowl (uber-smart decision, I must say)!
This commercial had me feeling mushy all over ;-)
