GirlHacker's Random Log

almost daily since 1999

 

Next, a strange article on how cell phones function as dating services in Asian countries. More airwave bandwidth in Asia and Europe has made the use of wireless data services more viable than in the United States where we can barely get enough airspace to talk to each other. So cell phone carriers in Korea, Hong Kong, and Japan can subscribe to services which match them up with other cell phone users in the same vicinity. Some services show you a video feed of the other person talking about what they are looking for in a mate. An interesting use of wireless technology.
