"Has become"?? When wasn't it a hookup application?
It's as if the writer is surprised that a location-aware gender-specific social software (with pictures!) would be used to find dates.
Um. How long have you been with this species? You know "hook up" is like, most of what we do, right? Humans make bunnies look prude by comparison.
- mattmaroon 18y agoIt's maybe much of what men try to do anyway. Still I never would have expected that Loopt was mainly about gay hookups.
- IsaacSchlueter 18y agoWell, maybe the author was just in a predominantly gay neighborhood. My point is, if Loopt is about meeting local strangers... I mean... it seems like "hook-up application" is logically the most common use of that technology. Can't you set Loopt to only show you your friends, though? (I don't use it because my phone doesnt' support it, and I'm too cheap to upgrade before I'm due for a discount, but I've seen it demoed a few times, looks interesting.)
- mattmaroon 18y agoI've never used Loopt. I thought it existed to tell you when people you knew were nearby.
