Dating Profile Headline of the Day

Mobile dating is alive and well
I’ve had my Android phone (HTC Desire) for a few weeks now and I have to say that I’m absolutely in love with it, if you can love a phone.
The Apple iPhone 4 was never an option for me, not because of availability but simply because I didn’t like the idea of everything my internet capable phone could do would have to be “approved” by Apple. Google, for better or worse, has a much more open market for apps, which I do appreciate. After all, the internet is based on a certain amount of freedom, right? Why surrender that freedom to a single company in the name of a dollar?
That being said I do not have, right now, a good count of the dating services available through an iPhone app, but the Google market has at least 20 apps for mobile access to dating, chatting and meeting people.
Certainly this shows what direction dating, and mobile computing as a whole, is headed. It has been said that sex drives computer technology as far as chasing dollars goes and I think there is some truth to that. If the sex industry (and dating is the main stream but smaller component of online sex) can make money on it then it’s a given that the “straight” computer community will follow.
That being said, more pressure than ever is put on you for not only which dating service you put your efforts into but also that you’re available when someone is looking for you, as they will be looking on their phone. Friday and Saturday nights are great times for mobile matches especially when you’re at an event and want to share the experience with someone that you can connect with at the same event.
And, all things being equal, you’re going to need to have regular and timely updates to what you’re doing for your mobile dating app, or portion of your regular online dating profile, to be effective.
This also means a headline to your profile that encourages immediate actions from the person that reads it. An example would be that you’re at a concert so you update your profile to not only where you are but how you like the show, encouraging reply messages to your updates so you have a common interest and maybe a reason to meet after the show.
Hey, it happens and you could meet your match just because you added a real-time event to your dating profile.
Today’s headline suggestion is a few words to help you get noticed, immediately, and make a connection and maybe a new friend. Post this:
“Meet me up after the (name of the ) show at (place).”
Have a great day!
PS. If you have experience with iPhone dating services that you’ve tried please comment to this post to let others know about them.
