Ideas

What would my date and I do? Guess we could sit "together" and watch YouTube.

Me: "lol......did you see that?!?"

Date: "lol.....Yeah."

Me: "Wanna go get a burger, I know a great joint in Second Life"

There are a number of these, ranging from Secondlife to various adult oriented communities that let you have virtual dates, drinks, drugs, and sex. Basically the whole gamut of dating!

I would imagine there is room for more of these sorts of services, but they are very expensive to build and set up. You'd need between $3-5 million to get to launch. You could definately use crowdsourcing to lower the dev costs though.

What daraddishman said.

Virtual drugs? Is it dangerous?

has been done

The easiest solution for this problem is Windows Messenger + Web-cam + Microphone.
If you add the so callad avatars to it you get the sites like Second Life.

This idea can have some potential if the site offers something different or a different way to relate. It could attract people to know each other around certain aspects of interests so it becomes less of a market exchange and more of a human way to relate experience.
I would do some research on what's been written of how we relate and bond. I would maybe even change the term date to something else.

Very sorry: but No.

Yeah, ...and we can download Titanic and watch it together. I like internet, but I prefere to have fun with real people, eating real food and drinking real drink and (for god sake) having real sex and real drugs. Really don't want to spend more time with my computer as I am doing now.

yeah, go watch the latest southpark

Add imvu to the list. It's basically halfway between MSN or Yahoo! messenger and Second Life: one-on-one chats between 3D avatars who can interact with each other and the environment.

"yeah, go watch the latest southpark"
That was a good new show its called "Over Logging ONLINE".

First Second Life pretty much already does this.

Also I don't know how you would be able to effectively build the required infrastructure without spending a large amount of cash.

Honestly this idea sort of made me think about the "crowdsurfing" deal that was big in the 90s where two people would watch the same video or look at the same website. It is appealing for about two minutes then it gets old.
