NewFriends4U.com combines science and technology to help you find a great relationship, whether a new friend or a soulmate

People's fascination with virtual worlds is escalating, fuelled by award-winning films featuring avatars, remarkable computer technology revealing alternative worlds and, of course, the mind-blowing implications for real life.

Now a dating and friendship site, NewFriends4U.com, has introduced a 3D virtual chat to help its members create real-life relationships.

What makes NewFriends4U.com even more unique is that its technology-based approach is solidly rooted in science. According to a Harvard University study, virtual dating is a highly effective way to create real-life relationships. Those who use virtual dating, when meeting for the first time, tend to be more successful when meeting face-to-face in the real world and are twice as likely to go on a second date!

"I believe nothing makes people happier than having close personal relationships," says Anne Reynolds, founder of NewFriends4U.com, "and I am very proud to be able create so many wonderful relationships for our members. Now virtual dating is taking it to a whole new level!"

There is mounting evidence that virtual dating is highly effective. At the upcoming Internet Dating Conference in June, Professor Michael Norton of Harvard Business School will deliver a keynote presentation on the advantages of virtual dating in the world of online dating.

"It is those websites that are truly concerned about the 'quality of experience' for their users that bring this cool technology to their members," says Dr. Igor Kotlyar, president of OmniDate, a developer of a virtual dating plug-in application. In a recent user survey conducted by OmniDate, respondents overwhelmingly agreed that virtual dating is an important part of an online dating experience.

"What our members particularly love about our 3D virtual chat," adds Anne Reynolds, "it's a lot of fun!"

Chatting in a virtual environment provides an opportunity to get to know the person behind the profile before deciding to meet up. By accepting an invitation to chat, members can find themselves in a virtual environment such as a coffee shop or a restaurant. To help get to know each other better, a selection of ice breaker games are available.
