Mobile and Online Dating Working Together

EasyDate has introduced the ability to update personal profiles with photos taken by and sent from mobile phones.

Sean Wood, Marketing Manager at Easydate ltd:

We realised by the number of photos we received in the post that not all our members had access to a scanner or a digital camera, so we looked at options that would give them the easiest possible method of completing their profile and increasing their chances of finding a date online. It occured to us that most mobile phones had integrated cameras so this was definitely the way to go. Our initial trials have proven very successful so we are now implementing this technology across our network of sites.

This is similar to the deal Helio has with Myspace. Helio phones, from KT Telcom, have built-in features to send higer-than-average resolution pictures to your Myspace profile and also allow begging from other Helio users for acquiring games, ringtones and other phone bling.
