If you think online dating services like eHarmony and OkCupid! are somehow lacking, maybe you should take a cook at CamPeng. Instead of the traditional online dating service method of asking each user for information about themselves in order to screen your compatibility with potential significant others, CamPeng’s has its users upload videos of themselves.
Based on their philosophy that, “a picture is worth more than a thousand words, a video is worth more than a thousand pictures”, the CamPeng team thinks their method will yield better matches. For those who are reluctant to try something new, don’t worry; the site still retains some of the traditional dating-site features like a simple text box and a photo. Registration and full usage of the site is free. You can also just browse around the videos (by country and gender) if you’re not serious about finding a mate.
CamPeng.com In Their Own Words
“CamPeng is a website we have designed to make it easy for people to make friends and find dates. Pictures say more than words, videos say more than pictures. That’s why we have decided to use video as the main medium. But of course, a picture and a little bit of written text are still very useful, so we have kept these more traditional features. CamPeng is about real people posting fun and clean contents that others enjoy watching”.
Why CamPeng.com It Might Be A Killer
CamPeng’s concept of video matchmaking is cool and innovative, and should appeal to singles who want to try a much more modern and fun dating site.
Some Questions About CamPeng.com
CamPeng has some basic issues to work out, which is probably why they aren’t ranked on Alexa yet. The site claims to operate in Danish and Spanish (in addition to English), but these features don’t work yet. Several links lead to ghost pages. The site looks somewhat untidy and incomplete; does the CamPeng team consider their site finished? Why can you only browse by gender and country? How do they expect to profit from this service with no advertising space?
