Another social networking site – im in like with you although here’s the twist:
Their business model relies on shy people flirting with other shy people. To flirt with someone, you must bid for their attention. To bid, you must have points. You collect points by adding info to your profile, uploading photos and videos and logging into the site every day.
You know the geeks are gonna love this. It’s still in BETA and you have to be invited to participate. But watch for this one.
And for anyone who’s really interested, here’s how it works:
1. Post the best-looking picture of yourself that you have because iminlikewithyou users must bid to flirt with you. Don’t worry if you’re not best-looking. If you got invited to iminlikewithyou, you’re already in the top 15%.
2. Earn points and bid. To flirt with someone, you must bid for their attention. To bid, you must have points. You collect points by adding info to your profile, uploading photos and videos and logging into the site every day.
3. Start a flirting game. It’s a lot like “The Dating Game”. Pretty much anything qualifies as a game, like asking where is the best slice of pizza or are you from Prospect Park? The majority of Iminlikewithyou’s 550 users live in New York City because that’s where founders Charles Forman and Dal Albritton live. Once a user has bid on your game, you can encourage him or her by sending them a wink.
4. Bid on other games. You can bid to take PopSugar’s PartySugar to dinner or pick a Final Four winner for some dude in the East Village. Like eBay, you must outbid your competitors in order to win the product, or in this case, the attention of the game host.
5. Pick your date. After a game is completed, the game host (that’s you) can pick one from the top five competitors. Points are deducted from the winning bidder if you decide you want an introduction to that person.
6. Contact anonymously. iminlikewithyou makes up alias email address and phone numbers so don’t worry if you picked a weirdo or creep. You can always go back and start a new game.
I know this seems like a pesky thing to ask, but…do you have any spare invite codes?
Yeah same question as laura, I’d appreciate an invite if you have a spare one.
I’m not so sure of the invite only nature of the site, it may generate hype but will constrict their potential userbase. I think itll have to become open , even if that happens say 3 days a month, just to bring in frsh users.
I sent an email to the site inquiring about getting invites. As soon as I hear from them I’ll post invites in here.
