Interactive Chat Rooms.Not
ready for the dating scene or maybe you just want to chat in safe and
secure websites without the profile hassles of personals
clubs? This
is the area for you! Prepare your microphone and web camera and get
ready to chat!
WHAT
THEY SAY:Don’t just meet your match. See them too. This premier online dating
site offers the ability to connect with other site members via live
video by means of special interest and lifestyle channels. DateCam's
website allows users to seek out and meet potential matches in a casual
environment with the benefit of real-time live video and chat.
WHAT WE FOUND:
DateCam is a very unique online dating service. Never before have we
reviewed an online service that has minimum computer requirements that
you have to meet before you can join. But here it is: Internet Explorer
or Netscape versions 4+; 400 mhz; 64 megs RAM; Flash Player 6. You’ll
also want to have a web camera and a microphone hooked up. You will be
using the chat and live video features quite a bit, either in one of the
many chat rooms, or while watching/broadcasting video streams of other
members and the minimum requirements are suggestions to make the
experience more enjoyable for everyone involved. (No one wants your
computer locking up, do they?) Begin your visit by signing up for the
free trial, since you really can’t do much more that check out a random
cam or look at the newest members (Fresh Faces) and checking that you
have the correct version of Flash Player installed (it’s a free viewing
program that will install automatically if you don’t have it yet). Free
membership allows you to post your profile, text and video, and join in
at the chat rooms as well as broadcast live video to other members. If
you want to have private video rooms, private chats or send and reply to
messages, you’ll need to become a premium member. You need to have a
webcam to make the most of DateCam, and since you have a camera (or can
get one here) your profile requires you to also include a picture of
yourself. Up to 8 pictures and one 30 second video can be included in
your profile and you will have many questions to answer about yourself
that will allow others to effectively search for you and get to know you
by what information you have revealed. They will also be able to view
your profile through links in the chat rooms, so be sure that you do
complete the profile questions. Through the use of Flash MX, you are
very easily broadcasting to any of the general chat rooms (we were
broadcasting and chatting within 5 seconds of entering one of the chat
rooms), the drawback here is that chatting is typing chats, audio is not
yet available due to bandwidth concerns. As a paid premium member you
will have 15 hours per month of video watching time to allow you to meet
other members and view their posted video profile. Features include
plenty of chat rooms that include video streams and hosted (moderated)
chat themes on a regular basis, E-Notes (how you communicate with other
members), DateMail (how you receive messages), your DateBook (where you
can keep notes on other members, who’s profile you’ve visited, who has
visited yours, etc.). People that have high speed internet connections
will find this service easy to use, although with the use of Flash MX
anyone using at least a 56K modem should have no problems getting full
use of the DateCam service.
WHAT YOU'LL FIND: Free
to join, post your profile with picture and video, and join the live
chats. Become a premium member to send and reply to messages and watch
other member’s video profiles. Straight and same sex personal ads
available.

WHAT
THEY SAY: For
singles, dating and romance. Superb online matchmaking, dating,
socializing and private chat for people just like you! People
join uDate for many reasons. Often, they are just too busy to
meet other people by traditional methods. But, more than
anything, people join because they want to be part of the
community. A community which offers a safe online environment to
meet people with similar interests. - A community where you can
remain anonymous, until such time as you feel ready to develop a
relationship further. A community dedicated to providing you
with the best possible search, selection and matching technology
available.
WHAT WE FOUND: uDate
makes meeting online fun again! The Profile you will
complete to begin your free trial membership is just enough for you to talk
about what you are looking for in a partner without revealing
too much, but you can include as much information about yourself
as you like. The free trial gets you in, but to send or reply to
messages, you have to become a paid member. This keeps the insincere
people out and helps to maintain the "really single" atmosphere that
makes uDate such a successful online meeting and dating service. The uDate messaging system maintains your privacy, and
once you start looking for friends and romantic partners, the
match page will tell you how compatible the person is for you
based on your defined criteria. Be sure to start with the uDate
Tour if this is your first visit, you'll be amazed at all the
features that are available to you, designed just to make you at
ease and having fun meeting new friends. Many members surf in
every day and are looking for chat partners, so it's best to
join in on the chats and you'll meet more people than just by
browsing the ads. The Who's Online feature combined with the
exclusive uWhisper chat system really adds to the fun of finding
new friends and serious romantic partners. With new members joining
every day, uDate is the leading site for people meeting people.
