"The best way to find your perfect match is to meet love halfway." - Author unknown.

ONLINE DATING or Internet dating is a dating system which allows individuals, couples and groups to make contact and communicate with each other over the Internet, usually with the objective of developing a personal romantic or sexual relationship. Online dating services usually provide unmoderated matchmaking over the Internet, through the use of personal computers or cell phones.

Online dating services generally require a prospective member to provide personal information, before they can search the service provider's database for other individuals using criteria they set, such as age range, gender and location. Most sites allow members to upload photos of themselves and browse the photos of others. Sites may offer additional services, such as webcasts, online chat, telephone chat (VOIP), and message boards. Some sites provide free registration, but may offer services which require a monthly fee. Other sites depend on advertising for their revenue.

Many sites are broad-based, with members coming from a variety of backgrounds looking for different types of relationships. Other sites are more specific, based on the type of members, interests, location, or relationship desired.

• Tinder - since 2012. "It Starts Here. Tinder is how people meet. It's like real life, but better." Since September 15, 2012. Tinder is a matchmaking app that facilitates communication between nearby users. It is used for dating as well as other kinds of networking. Tinder app users create accounts through using Facebook. Tinder maintains the first name of the user, and randomly selects 5 photos from the Profile Picture album of the user. The Tinder account can be modified by selecting different Facebook photos to be displayed and adding a short statement. The Tinder app also accesses the user's Facebook "likes" and "friends". When selecting other Tinder users to interact with, the app will show if the other user has any Facebook "friends" or "likes" in common with the user. Tinder users select "like" or "nope" to other users profiles. As the profile contains limited information, Tinder is well known for allowing users to judge other users based on appearance. If two users select "like" for one another, the match is made known to both users. At this point, users gain access to a message system exclusively through the app, allowing users to converse without sharing any extra personal information.
