Dr. Dato’s Brief:

Ignighter.com has had some of a checkered history here in USA since its birth in 2008 by the three Jewish founders Daniel Osit, Adam Sachs and Kevin Owocki. All three wanted to create a ‘group’ type dating site and worked hard at acquiring members but they didn’t see the traction they wanted in the USA but overseas the website particularly in India is doing very well.

The site in India is now ranked 2,779 according Alex traffic report but has a dismally low traffic level in the USA. However, according to the NY times reporting on this article, the co-founders have now shifted their marketing focus to India and have already acquired additional angel funding to the tune of $3 million. They will be setting up offices in India and try to get a footing in the dating culture of India which is very different to that of the West. See our additional review of the dating scene in India.

The remainder of the article talks about some of the opinions gauged from users of Ignighter and the opinion of dating in India.

Video dating systems of the 1980s and 1990s especially, where customers gave a performance on video, which was viewable by other customers, usually in private, in the same facility. Some services would record and play back videos for men and women on alternate days to minimize the chance that customers would meet each other on the street.

Phone dating systems of about the same vintage, where customers call a common voice mail or phone-chat server at a common local phone number, and are connected with other reputed singles, and typically charged by the minute as if it were a long-distance call.

Computer dating systems of later 20th century, before the rise of sophisticated phone and computer systems, gave customers forms that they filled out with important tolerances and preferences, which were “matched by computer” to determine “compatibility” of the two customers. The history of dating systems is closely tied to the history of technologies that support them. The first large-scale computer dating system.

So we can say that in today’s world there are unlimited places for singles to meet.

One matchmaker advised it was good to match “brains as well as beauty” and try to find people with similar religious and political viewpoints and thinks that like-minded people result in more matches, but it is also true that opposites sometimes attract It’s easier to put several people together at the same time, so there are other candidates possible if one doesn’t work out.
