Im In Like With You on Facebook
Saturday, June 9th, 2007 
The popular dating site, I’m in Like With You (IILWY), has launched a Facebook application. The application displays the questions that you ask on your IILWY profile. This is a great example of integration of an outside social network within Facebook. When I checked out integration with my own profile it was fairly limited. All it does is display a random selection of games that are active on the site. It would be great if you could answer IILWY questions directly from the profile as well as display a snippet of your profile. Given that this is one of the first integrations of another social network within Facebook I can’t be overly critical, but there is definitely more that could be offered. One added benefit of installing the application is that you can sign up for the site through Facebook, whereas before the site was invite only. This will most likely provide a boost to their user base. If you are on IILWY or if you want an I’m in like with you invite, go check out the application.

Get A Date on Facebook
Thursday, June 7th, 2007
IAmFreeTonight.com has released an application for Facebook that matches you up with dates and wingmen. It is a pretty slick application but currently only has a few people on it. There are definitely some downfalls to the application such as the fact that it reveals your full name and location to anyone using the application. A good upgrade would allow users to display their profiles anonymously. I have seen another application that allows you to prevent your name from showing on your profile, but it would be great if it gave a profile synopsis and possibly pictures without access to your name. Additionally, it would be great to have a feature that prevents your friends from seeing that you are using the application. Ultimately this would create an anonymous dating platform. This is definitely a great start though. So if you are looking for a date tonight and are lucky enough to live near one of the active members, go grab the “Hang Out With Me” application.
