Don’t let the tenor of this faux news piece fool you—it’s clearly a promotional video for SpeedDate.com, an online videodating service. But it does show the basics of how the service works: three-minute video dates over the web, with big “Yes” and “No” buttons to judge your experience (and suitor) after the chat is over.

I can’t figure out what the prices might be if you use the service (and going to their website starts a sample video date playing automatically, which is really annoying). But it seems both terrifying and intriguing. Would any of you single guys actually use something like this? It would obviously take a lot more prep and effort than using other online personals—almost as much as going on a real date.
