| Virtual dating is very intuitive and resembles a typical IM chat. Users interact through photo-realistic 3D characters (avatars), which respond naturally to the typed text and provide a fun dating experience (e.g., typing LOL makes an avatar laugh). Users can even blow a kiss or reach over and touch the hand of the other avatar. Virtual dating is 100% browser-based and does not require users to install any software. It's simple to get started - FIND, INVITE, DATE! |
