Speed Dating Through the Eyes of a Mobile Blogger

Woot! It’ll be a treat. SMS Text News‘ Ewan MacLeod is going Speed Dating!

However, he did say he’s only in it for ‘research’ — he’ll be taking down notes on mobile phones used by the participants and he’s even hoping to get photos to document the phone sighting.

I’m a bit curious, though. He called it speed networking. Tis the first time I’ve encountered it being called such. Made me think twice if he’s indeed going on a speed dating event. Heh. (Er, perhaps you can check it out for me and tell me if I got it wrong..? If I did… oh, dear.)

This bit on his post made me laugh a little:

Hi I’m Ewan.

‘Hi Ewan, my name is Melanie, what do………’

Let me stop you there Melanie…

‘Sorry?’

Is that a Nokia 3330 in your handbag I can see?

‘Yes actually?’

Have you had your main phone recently stolen?

‘No? Why… what do you..’

Are you telling me you’re seriously using a Nokia 3330 as your main handset?

‘Well yes, but what do…’

NEXT!

Heeheehee. I recommend you check the rest and have a chuckle.

Reminds me of that one time I went on a speed dating thingie myself. LOL.

Hey, Ewan! Perhaps you can use these! HEHEHE.

Can’t wait how this research project will turn out!

Hmmm. Now, I’m thinking if it’s possible to live-blog a speed dating event — as a participant! Gah.
