myMatchPod says its the first online dating widget to offer free live speed dating via webcams. I guess they were so busy getting the application built that they failed to pay attention to the other 10 companies fighting for supremacy in the burgeoning videodating market.

Joining in on the fun is fast and easy. All that is needed is a microphone. For a limited time a web camera is optional.

Simply click “Take a Seat”, fill out your personal vitals, then select your match criteria. Depending on the… (more) time of day your first LIVE speed date should start within 5 minutes.

After a few minutes on myMatchPod you will have a much better idea of whether or not there is a connection with a date all without the surprises and/or headahes. All day long we offer 2 minute, 5 minute , and special interest dating sessions.

If it’s audio-based speed dating, how can a webcam be optional for a limited time?

The myMatchPod website is down at the moment, oops.

SpeedDate.com has their weekly event tonight. You know how I feel about this service.
