Do you have a super-sexy Halloween costume? Well, Thursday night, you can try out your costume on SpeedDate. The night before Halloween, we’re inviting SpeedDate members to wear costumes while they are on SpeedDate. Either upload a pic of yourself in costume or turn on your webcam.  Give your costume a whirl on SpeedDate before wearing it on Halloween.

Also, please email your best Halloween date stories to info @ speeddate.com.  We’ll post the some of the highlights right here.  Happy Halloween!

We celebrated the first anniversary of our launch this month.  Since launching in October 2007, we’ve hosted 18 million online dates.   Since SpeedDate hosts an average of 120,000 online dates per day, a new date begins on the site every second of the day. 

 One of the highlights of our first year came on Valentine’s Day, when SpeedDate.com user Francesca Salcido dated over 300 people in a single 24-hour marathon session.  We were excited that the event attracted worldwide press coverage including ABC’s Good Morning America.  The site’s themed dating nights around events such as Super Tuesday and the summer Olympics also drew large dating numbers.

To think that a year ago online speed dating didn’t even exist and today we help millions of people all over the world to find that special someone is truly gratifying.  At SpeedDate.com the chances are that you will be connecting with someone you have real chemistry with in just minutes.

We look forward to enhancing SpeedDate and welcoming plenty of new users in Year #2!
