Press Release Summary: "Finding love online is hard work," says Ferdouse Khaleque,
Creator of JumpDates.com. "If you are diligent, you have to read hundreds, maybe
even thousands of dating profiles to meet your match. The alternative is what most
singles do: viewing thousands of photos, jumping to conclusions about them, and
narrowing down the choices to a few profiles, which are then read carefully.

Press Release Body: "Finding love online is hard work," says Ferdouse Khaleque,
Creator of JumpDates.com. "If you are diligent, you have to read hundreds, maybe
even thousands of dating profiles to meet your match. The alternative is what most
singles do: viewing thousands of photos, jumping to conclusions about them, and
narrowing down the choices to a few profiles, which are then read carefully.

"That's why JumpDates.com is proud to a new online dating game, First Impressions,
which adds fun to the online dating process. With online dating, just as in
face-to-face interaction, we all jump to conclusions about people and their ages,
occupations, nationality, etc. If someone's photo on JumpDates.com attracts your
attention, you can play the First Impressions Game and discover immediately how
accurate your impressions are. While the main purpose of the Game is to add fun to
the online dating process, there is a serious benefit as well. You learn how often
your first impressions are inaccurate. Hopefully that will encourage you to read the
complete profiles of as many members as time permits, rather than lose a potential
ideal romantic partner because your first impressions were wrong.

"With over 280,000 profiles on JumpDates.com alone, it would be impossible to play
the game with every profile. But hopefully our members will be more diligent than
those other dating websites, and read more profiles. The more informed dating
decisions are, the greater the likelihood of a compatible match and of a lasting
relationship."

The First Impressions Game is only one feature of the JumpDates.com dating system.
Other features include:
· 100% free dating service. There are no hidden fees, no paid upgrades, no requests
for donations.
· Fully featured instant messenger to chat with other members.
· Full editing of your profile after registration.
· Advanced messaging system to communicate with other members.
· Search and save members by location, interest, ethnicity, and more.
· Hide your profile as many times as you want.
· Dating advice and dating tips for newbies.
· Complete confidentiality and privacy assured.
