Business of Flirting

Flirtomatic – Public Beta

Well well well. Two and a half years ago I commented on NowEurope.com rather tetchily about the various business networks that were the rage at the time. I noted that they were no better than “business flirting”, thinking in particular of Ryze and it’s “be my friend, leave a comment, tell me weekly how many doggies sniffed my lamp-post” brand of ‘networking’.

Curious and amusing therefore to see Flirtomatic.com
looking for all the world like Manga-meets-Ryze.

At least F-o-M has a business model: hardly any more than a text to flirt with Carrie, Playgirl, Stuart, Warren and Hammersmith… Good luck to them: could be enough of a laugh to get the teenies to part with the equivalent of a text or two a day.
