My idea for an application, usable on any phone, tablet, or
PC, is an application that will use Shazam to tag men or women with a
"datable" score much like the Player Score on certain MMORPGs. Just
like receiving restaurant reviews, or movie reviews, by holding up your phone
in the direction of the signal, this app will give a "Datable" score of
the person you’re pointing it towards that is calculated by input from others
that have dated that particular person.
“Before you completely dismiss the idea of speed dating, consider
the following scenario: You've worked hard all your life to get through
university and then find a decent job to guarantee yourself financial
stability. The problem is you never had time to meet or date women along the
way. So now what do you do?” - http://www.askmen.com/dating/curtsmith/58_dating_advice.html,
The Benefits of Speed Dating
In this day
and age, everything is about speed and ease of use. The Datable Score app will
allow the user to make the decision of whether or not the person is worth
talking to before having to go through the hassle of getting through awkward introductions,
buying drinks, or even lengthy conversations that end with the two of you
having nothing in common.
“One of the main reasons why dating and relationships are often
filled with drama is that one or both of the individuals fail to be upfront
about what they want. If you want drama-free dating, you need to be completely
honest about your expectations and your wishes. You also need to make a point
of noticing whether the people you meet online are doing the same.” - http://ezinearticles.com/?Avoid-Dating-Hassles&id=3606920,

Another
useful feature of this app is its personal database. Users can go online and
submit a personal profile that can also be accessed through Shazam when their
datable score is given. It will allow the user to assess the potential and
possible validity of the score the person they are looking at is. For instance,
if a man is into body soaps, incense, and reading, he may have dated a few
women that are not looking for the sensitive type and therefor gave him a low
score. When the score is given, it will also give a brief description as to who
scored them and for what reasons. Think of it as a dater review.
“Face it; finding a great mate takes some research.”You're going to
go through a lot of people, until you find someone where there is some kinetic
thing, some magnetism, some desire to know more," says Pepper Schwartz,
PhD, a sociologist at the University of Washington in Seattle.” - http://www.webmd.com/

a Minefield
Let’s face it, dating
can be tedious, boring, frustrating, and even dangerous. It’s very hard to get
a grasp of who someone really is without having to go through outdated rituals,
polite conversation that is vague at best in regards to a person’s actual
history, or spending a lot of money on dating sites that weed out the potential
“good” candidates for you. The Datable Score will allow you to observe a live
person, see how they behave, give you a summary of who they are, show you
reviews from others that have dated them, and give you the option to “investigate”
the room for that one best suited for you so you can talk to the right person
the first time.
