From: utzoo!decvax!ittvax!dcdwest!wsp Newsgroups: net.singles Title: Commercial Possibilities Article-I.D.: dcdwest.138 Posted: Wed Nov 10 09:40:06 1982 Received: Mon Nov 15 03:04:34 1982 Someone could make alot of money by creating a commercial version of net.singles. I don't mean as a on-line call-person service, but as a means for single people to chat with others from the privacy of their own home. It seems to me that people are willing to talk if they think someone will listen and we all seem willing to listen to at least the topic sentence. No doubt such a commercial net would be more geographically constrained than ours to allow for the potential of meeting one's interlocuters. It would also be reasonable to break it up into interest groups so that the kinks and the born-agains need not read one another's mail (although they might for a bit of mind-expansion). s I have not seen much use for personal computers myself, but if such a service was available I would certainly buy a terminal and a modem.
