Smartphone and Dating Platforms

In a wildly random moment today it crossed my mind how certain platform smartphones might possibly be connected with dating styles. Random I know, but hang with me.


An iPhone is more like an on-line dating service. If you're looking for something with very specific ideas in mind and don't think you'd want to entertain thoughts of anything outside that "must have" list then perhaps you are an iPhone/on-line dating sort of person. You can only get the info that is very highly screened and rated personally for you and your requests or what you think should be your requests through a very specific channel. There is always you may end up dating someone too much like yourself and who knows how that might work out. But no need to worry, in six months your choice will have cooler looking clothes and new abilities.
On the other hand, an Android is more like the blind date sort of thing. Let someone fix you up with a person they think would be a good match for you. Afterall, who knows you better?! Of course this comes with a certain level of mystery. As with the Android you hear about cool apps from your better known geek sources and quicklydownload it. Quickly you realize you have become an Angry Birds Addict and are on the waiting list for the "not-so-celebrity" rehab. On the other hand your blind date could end up being the awkward person from high school who went on to study in an Ivy league school and dabbled in the swimsuit modeling biz for a while and is looking to settle down and just make their soulmate happy now. Again in six months (or less) this too could have cooler looking clothes and new abilities.



I'm not saying this applies to everyone but there are some similarities don't you think?

Although, the option to upgrade for the one could be costly.
