This is a website, where you place a few markers on the map on where you prefer to meet another random person. (and also a range of area/time that you are open to meet new people)

On a random day, you will receive a sms (or email), that says "do you want to meet somebody at (location) on 'certain time' ". If you accept, it will notify that person, that you want to meet... and then if they accept, you will be notified.

Now then, you shall meet for a small chat, say hello... and quite likely say 'kthx bai' in person, without exchanging phone numbers.

But you will meet a person, regardless...

------------- If they don't turn up, just downvote your experience, and they will not meet as many new people. (nicer people however, are more likely to blindmeet other nicer people)

       [po] Doesn't work in places where any stranger who addresses you is either proselytizing or begging.   

       [Akimbomidget] Should involve cloak-and-dagger nonsense like "I will be wearing a red carnation, and carrying a copy of yesterday's Times in my left hand. The passphrase will be 'Le lance-knecht frappe a minuit.'"

       [mouse] I'm doing the addressing and just chatting.

       [po] Sorry, I wasn't clear. I meant: In those places, people would assume you were begging or proselytizing, and cross the street, change train cars, etc. to avoid you.

       ...just like they do now! ;o)
