I can't imagine how this would work in the real world. Suppose this gained widespread adoption like Tinder; you're at the bar with friends and see a cute girl. Are we going to be expected to first check SingleSpot to see if it's okay to introduce ourselves? Not only would I never do that, but the only purpose of doing that is just to avoid rejection and really just provides a crutch for people with self esteem issues.
Ok so maybe that's not it. Maybe the first step is to find women that are single in the first place! So now I find out that there are a few girls on SingleSpot at the bar. I go to the bar and now we're back to the first situation.
Ok so maybe it's for places other than the bar. SingleSpot says there's a cute girl... at Starbucks. Am I supposed to go into Starbucks, hope that she's still there 10 minutes from now, and then invite myself for coffee at that moment? Am I supposed to walk around with my phone at the library, the grocery store, the gas station looking for Cute Singles Near Me? And why do I need an app to do that anyway? I can just, you know, see girls and say hi if I want to.
I'll even add a personal experience. In college, I caught up with a girl after a class we shared that I had matched with the previous night. I had sent her a message but just assumed she didn't see it. I introduced myself and said that we had matched on Tinder, and got back a (hilariously) blank and bewildered stare. We exchanged numbers and never spoke again. I can't imagine it would have gone better if I said I saw her on Facebook and thought she was cute. People get freaked out when you to pull their online personas into the real world.
