Cyber Flirting - A Walk In The Park At DateMyPet.com

    /24-7PressRelease/ - BURLINGAME, CA, January 24, 2007 - Cyber flirting is the new online craze this Valentine's Day season at DateMyPet.com. Not only can people find a date for themselves, but they can also find a date for their furry and feathered friends.

Datemypet.com is an online dating and pet lovers' community with many interactive ways to flirt over cyberspace. "It's as safe as a walk in the park", says Robert Yau. Robert and his dog, Hershey, created Datemypet.com in September of 2004.

"We've had tremendous success in the last couple of years", says Robert. "The idea for DateMyPet.com started during a walk with Hershey in our local park. As usual, folks were approaching us and commenting on how cute he is. This would lead to conversation, ranging from simple and causal talk to details about their lives. Total strangers two minutes earlier and we would be conversing like old friends. That's the power of our pets. They provide a common link, an understanding of who we are. This is the basis of DateMyPet.com and when deciding on cyber flirting techniques, we took the idea of walking in the park to heart."

Just like a friendly walk in the park, DateMyPet.com offers light-hearted flirting techniques. "The virtual kiss is the easiest", says Robert. "Sending a kiss is the best way to say 'Hi!' without saying anything at all. In the dog park, this would be like making eye contact or smiling. A virtual kiss lets them know that you are available to be friendly with them and their pet(s)."

Next up is 'How Cute is My Pet?', a cyber flirting technique that allows members to give pets a 'Cutie Rating'. Rating pets (and getting a pet rated) from 'only a parent will love this' and 'ugly cute' to 'I'm taking this baby home!', establishes a connection and provides an opportunity to start chatting, emailing and connecting to other pet lovers.

Robert adds, "Knowing that the person is a pet lover is a strong link to build on and makes things easier. And if things go well for you and your new friend...let's just say we've had some marriages!"
