Blog #8 Summarization of Friday Articles

The journal today was over the 4 articles that my group, Group #2 presented. The four articles were “The Dating Detectives”, “Getting Back Into It”, “Internet Dating 2.0”, and “Is eHarmony Biased Against Gays?”. The one I talked about in class was “The Dating Detectives”. This article was about this man named Vikas Sharma who started dating someone online. His relationship with whoever this woman is began having a more advance relationship! They would meet up with each other for several months. The bad thing about that is that their was no common link as in no one in the middle of them. He soon hired a detective to see what his potential spouse was doing. He ended up finding out that she had checked into another man in a hotel. Vikas Sharma ended up calling it off with that woman. Detective agencies such as Globe Group have made a lot of business! Dating detective will try to discover as much information as possible from whoever their supposed to find the information from. In India, when your dating somebody from another country you are extra careful who you talk to! That’s why they hire detectives. That’s what the “Dating Detectives” is mainly about.
In “Is eHarmony Biased Against Gay?”, its about people saying eHarmony being biased against gays! Gays are complaining about how on eHarmony there is not an opportunity when you apply to talk men to men, its man seeking woman, and woman seeking man. Neil Clark Warren is the creator of eHarmony and says there is plenty of sites for gays to get on. He says how manhunt has 21, 739 gay men online! I don’t see the big deal, I think John Cloud or whoever the gay guy is overreacting because eHarmony isn’t the only dating website on the internet! If Neil Clark Warren wants to only have men seeking women, viseversa that’s his decision. That’s all I have to say about that article.
“Internet Dating 2.0” is just talking about how all the websites that are available for people to use. Honestly mrs. Crawford I can’t remember this one I don’t have the article, and it won’t open on my computer! Sorry!
Last but not least “Getting Back Into It” talks about how people that have gotten older are getting back into dating and such things. It gives example such as 54 year old Sally Salners dating her 33 year old boyfriend! There are its bad effects of getting back into dating by the internet such as Gale Shamama getting stabbed by the person she met over online! As for me I met my girlfriend over myspace, and we’ve been together a year and a half since then. Other ways of getting back into dating are tagging along with friends and just hanging out with close friends. Another concern is of course HIV and AIDS! Those are some methods on how to get back into dating whether your 20 or 65, and that’s the summarization of “Getting Back Into It”
Finally that’s the end of this journal! Lol That’s what happened in class, and those are the summarizations in my opinion of the articles! Goodnight
