DATING:-
doterror.info – April 1, 2006) Google today announced the launch of a new online dating service called Google Romance. According to Google, the service includes Google’s proprietary "Soulmate Search" function that they describe as "latest psychographic and search algorithms to bear on the problem of hooking up our users."
"That’s just great – once again, the sheer volume of our users’ thirst for our products has exceeded our capacity to quench it, therefore, deja vu, this service is not available at this time (at least not to you)."
The Google Romance service is part of Google’s annual tradition of an April Fool’s joke.
"It’s definitely an entertaining April Fool’s joke," says Joe Tracy, publisher of Online Dating Magazine. "People take online dating very seriously and so Google decided to bring in a more light-hearted approach to the subject with Google Romance. It’s great to visit, and especially to take the Site Tour."
The April Fool’s joke doesn’t put to rest the possibility of a real "Google Romance" online dating service in the future as the Internet giant seeks to further expand its Web properties.
