8AT8 -- Sep 16 -- On Ignighter.com, groups are formed through an ambassador -- a kind of social director -- who invites his or her friends to join. Groups go out with other groups. Group-dating came on the scene in 1998 with 8at8, a service that sets up dinner dates with four men and four women and now has 25,000 members in six major metropolitan areas. Then came the Internet and, with it, sites like TeamDating.com, which has a concept similar to Ignighter's. IamFreeTonight.com allows its users to post double-date and group-date listings. Meet New People, a Facebook dating application, has more than 3m users who post when they are free to "hang out" and RSVP to group gatherings. FULL ARTICLE @ 8AT8
