I just read and article about how it works. They take around 15-25 people, depending, and put them in a part like atmosphere and you each get like anywhere from 3-5 minutes each to talk and get to know one another. When the time is up, you move to the next one. It does cost money and you can get free drinks out the deal. You all get labeled with numbers and then in the end you choose. Here is a website I found, if you all want to check it out. Let me know what you think. Comments and arguements welcome. lol

****My thoughts are that I dont see how this would work. In 3 mins how can you find out enough to know if you want to see this person. I need more than 3 minutes to talk to the guy. I mean, I could say...in three minutes, whether I would a) just sleep with him, b)go on a date, or c) nothing at all. Now, this is all I can come up with in that time frame. Is this type of thing for acutal serious dating or just fun? Im curious.
I mean I sometimes felt like a used car when putting up a profile on a dating page but cattle is even worse, right? ;-)
Good question!

I dunno, they're coming out with more and more ways to match make. I don't think it would be any worse than what we're all doing now. Besides,I think a lot of it is just for fun, I personally wouldn't do it because it's basically like chatrooms except you're in person:P. But you gotta be open to ideas...lol. That's my two cents!

I totally agree with Nicole - I would feel like I was at a cattle auction - just like the meat market at the bar, but so much worse.
