The dating game in the UK is pretty complex. Frankly, I’m glad I’m out
of it. Those of you who aren’t, though, will be all too familiar with
the complexities involved when you try and find a boyfriend or find a
girlfriend. Dating’s tough. A friend of mine, though, has come up with a
pretty good solution. It’s called Compa, and it’s designed to
orchestrate group dating in the UK. A clever idea, actually, and
originally Japanese: the plan is that, instead of going out there
looking for love by yourself, you get a group of you together. Then, on
the website, you find a similar-sized group of the opposite sex, and
arrange to go out on a big group date. If it works, great, and some of
you go home together; if it doesn’t, you all get to have a laugh, and
there’s no cringingly embarrassing blind date moment when you realise
you can’t stand the person you’re in the pub with. It’s an intriguing
idea, and I wish him the very best of luck with it. And all the rest of
you who are in the market for a date might now be in the market for a
group date, too.
Nice clean (although sadly invalid)
CSS-styled HTML,
too. The designers did a reasonable job there (although I would have
liked to see validity). I consulted a little on security issues, and
they seemed like a good group of guys.
