HINDLEY GREEN, WIGAN, UK - March 9, 2006 - Chat rooms, discussion
forums and online dating sites have boomed over the past few
years. Although these sites sometimes bring online users
together, there's still a huge gap in the Internet social club -
a way to build "true" friendships.
Tim Aspinall, owner of YGAF.com (You've Got a Friend), introduces
his web site, which helps online surfers from all over the world
to meet others online, and actively build friendships offline.
Unlike a typical online dating site, YGAF.com enables users to
post their desired adventure or activity and invite others to
join them. It's an easy and fun way for like-minded people to
come together, and the service is offered free to everyone.
"Someone who wants to try a new daring activity such as hot-air
ballooning or mountain climbing can visit the site to find others
in their area who want to do the same. It's also for those
looking for companionship while doing everyday activities such as
dining out at a restaurant, playing poker, ice skating, yachting
or clubbing," says Aspinall.
The following scenario illustrates how the site is bringing
people together. A woman who wants to take a ski trip can invite
other skiers in her area to come along. She posts her profile,
the event and an invitation at the site. She gets to approve who
she wants to participate by viewing the profiles of those who are
interested in the ski trip. She can refuse if she feels uneasy
about someone.
Another example is when three ladies want to go out for a night
of dancing. They use the free service at YGAF.com several weeks
in advance to invite three gents to join them. When they post
their wishes and profiles on the site, 30 men may apply. The
ladies can then select three men from the group based on their
profiles.
The site operates similar to the popular auction site eBay in
that users can leave feedback about those they've met - positive
or negative. So, any user who tries to deceive others is
discovered quickly.
"Someone who's new to an area or whose current friends don't
share the same interests will find YGAF.com to be a great start.
There are many ways to meet new people; we just provide a free,
easy way to invite and qualify those people beforehand," states
Aspinall.
