WooMe Opens Up to Public

Mark Hendrickson

14 comments »

Speed introductions site WooMe, which we reviewed two weeks ago while in the site was still in private beta here, has officially opened its doors to the public.

WooMe puts users in quick, 1-on-1 video conferencing sessions during which they can determine whether to pursue a relationship (romantic or otherwise) with the stranger on the other end. While the site is not explicitly marketed as a dating site, it competes quite directly with SpeedDate, which we have also reviewed.

    I can see it as being a better alternative to craigslist personals.

    @4
    but 90% of Craigslit personals are fake/email hunters/spammers.

    I like the feature of video conferencing, it will not just good for dating but also this feature can be used in other purpose too like business meeting and interviewing.

    We have video intros as well, it’s still a fairly new option and many people aren’t comfortable with posting video or having live video segments when trying to meet new people. I wish them the best of luck

    i really like the site and the interface, but they should put up a distinct and separate “non dating” section for business users - this has tremendous potential for prospecting (e.g. i’m hosting a session on X tomorrow, open to all etc)

    I like the concept…it needs a little refining and it will be golden.

    What I don’t get is why not market it to the dating scene? I mean, it is probablay where the concept is the best fit…..just embrace it.

    Look at Userplane for example…they could have focused on any of 100’s of markets, but they didn’t and look where they went.
