Meetcha.com, a new social dating site for adults, today announced its launch into the Portland, Maine market. Meetcha makes dating more fun and less pressured by offering adults one-on-one online matching plus PODS — People Out Doing Stuff(TM), where people with shared interests meet in groups at great places. To mark its debut in Portland, Meetcha is challenging Portland singles to join its “Whip it Up” flash POD this Saturday, June 19 at Post Office Park at noon. The event is free, open to the public and no registration is required.

Full disclaimer: Meetcha’s parent company is my landlord but that doesn’t change the fact that the over-40 dating market seems to be warming up to F2F meetups (PODS) to bring members together.
