Moreover women do not like that proposal at all (location awareness for dating purposes) because they think they are being hunt by men.

* As for Mobile Dating: I think mobile applications may be good for markets such as Korea and Japan, but I believe a ceiling has already been reached in North America and Europe.
Perhaps by 2014, the mobile concept will be diluted (or disappear) for dating purposes with the majority of subscribers using netbooks/iPads with mobile broadband modems, or WiFi, rather than smartphones.
