From iLounge…

PodDater.com is a new video dating service that offers downloadable clips of potential matches formated for the video-capable iPod.

“If a picture is worth a thousand words, what’s a video worth when looking for love? Or making new friends? Imagine a site that allows you to look, listen to, and watch videos of potential matches… and the best part is that you can do it on the go. PodDater is the world’s first dating/social networking site that brings together the growing popularity of the online dating space and the enormous success of the iPod…”

Cool idea. But what if it were combined with a mainstream dating site, like personals.yahoo.com or gay.com? Then, what if the iPod had bluetooth (oh, if only!). Then, what if you could go Toothing (sadly a hoax, apparently) with your iPod? Your iPod alerts you when a compatible mate is nearby and the devices negotiate to exchange rich media profiles. If all is well, you can meet in person and arrange the time to meet - using your integrated Yahoo! calendar - and they can recommend a nearby restaurant from local.yahoo.com.

Before you know it, you can put your wedding album, video, and “your song” on your iPod and bore the heck out of your jealous friends!
