Hazards of the website For these types of sites generally You can never be 100% sure of anybody For your site specifically Because it is free, there are many more people who are simply looking than actually looking for a date.

What is your group’s perspective on these types of sites? Are they useful? Yes, we believe that they are useful especially for adults who do not have the time to look for a partner but can surf the web for a few minutes and find themselves a date. Do the hazards outweigh the benefits? We think that they balance themselves out. On one hand you could find you soul mate, on the other you could go on a date with very strange and creepy people. How does it compare to sites like myspace or facebook? These types of sites are similar to myspace and facebook because they involve communicating online. Yet, on myspace and facebook, the main objective is not to be paired up with another member. Also, you can be more certain of who you talk to because you usually know them personally.

Unique Features A few of the unique features that Plenty of Fish offers are: A list of “who loves me”, which shows members who have added them to their favourites The opportunity to look for members that have gone to the same Universities. The ability to know if somebody has read your or deleted it.
