Udate
comes way on top in the online dating stakes for us - we know because
we've used it extensively! Members; Udate is never short of new
members; if you check out the bottom of your own personal "home page"
after having joined, you'll see new members signing up every single
minute!
It's a site that we've seen go from strength to strength over the past
year - Udate are now the market leader - and deservedly so.
If you're short on time, better stay clear of Udate, because
once the first person sends you a "Whisper" (Udate's name for a chat
message), you're going to be hooked - work, meals and friends will go by
the wayside, while you get your daily "fix"!
SPECIAL FEATURES OF UDATE?
-
Match. Use Match to find people who
match your specification on Udate - you can do on and offline matches,
as well as two-way matches.
-
Whispers - 1:1 Instant
Messaging/chat. One the best features on Udate. Whispers are easy to follow and
respond to, with a mini profile of the person you're chatting to
on the same page so you can work out whether they're worth
responding to or not!. They are an awful lot of fun and
definitely create "stickiness" to the site!
-
Friends - a system for bookmarking people of
interest so you catch them as soon as they come online at Udate.
-
Mail -Udate 's online mail service.
HIGHS ON UDATE?
-
With the combination of Udate "Friends", and
"Profile" features lined up alongside "Whispers", you're able to
sort out the wheat from the chaff very quickly...so you can get
down to business...
-
Udate will terminate the membership of persistent
nuisances.
-
Udate will notify you several days before your
membership runs out, so that you don't unintentionally let it run on.
LOWS ON UDATE?
-
If we were to quibble about anything at
Udate, we'd complain that the speed of the Whispers is a little slow,
but hey, we've found that useful - it gives you time to tap out replies to the
stream of messages that you get off this site!
More of an irritant than a low...as we've said the
Udate "Friends" system is a
really useful tool for keeping track of people you're corresponding
with. However, it can feel like you've no privacy when it's used
to keep track of you...you log on simply to check your messages,
and before you know it, you're inundated with people who want to speak
with you, even if you've been wanting to avoid them!
