All Dating News.com: learn more about online dating, love, sex, dating sites and dating industry: Darwin's Theory Goes Ahead In Online Dating ================================================================================ igor-zu on 15 May, 2008 02:00:00 The industry of online dating always offer new options day by day, trying to attract new clients of different social, ethnic, racial, professional and other groups, to achieve a new level of marketing in constant competition with other services. We already wrote about dating site, which accept beautiful and attractive clients only. Here is another one “Darwin's” approach to matchmaking and cyberdating. If you are tired of the same old internet dating sites and if you're smart singleton and good at taking tests, a new website could be the answer. The social networking site directed towards highly intelligent people with a knack for deciphering complex visual patterns, which started in Denmark, has now expanded to Canada and the United States. Potential candidates have to pass an online test to prove they have an IQ of 115 or higher. The score places them in the top 15 percent of the population for intelligence. The site based on the belief that intelligent people communicate better with other intelligent people and, of course, love happens more easily if people communicate well. This project was started because its founders thought it was missing from the dating scene and the social networking scene. The test to join the site is based on one used by Mensa -- an international society founded in England for people with an IQ in the top two percent of the population. It is designed to be "culture fair", so it tests intelligence while minimizing cultural and educational biases. People can take the test twice, and though site's operators admits that in some ways it could be viewed as discriminatory, they also states that there are other sites that discriminate on the basis of other criteria. The new site, which has about 700 members, has attracted engineers, lawyers, students, web developers and teachers, and now it's too early to say how successful the site has been at "hooking people up".
