Status Updates - Hits the Online Dating Singles Scene

Everyone at This Could Be HUGE! is thrilled to announce that Status Updates have been released on the site. This Could Be HUGE! is the first free online dating site and dating site in general to allow users to provide the dating and single community with status updates.

You’re probably asking, what are status updates? Status updates are a short (140 character max) update on what you are currently doing. This allows you to login, update your status as “on a hot date” leave the computer and allow all your friends and contacts to know what you’re up to. Another example of a great status update is “BRB @ the Gym.” This status update allows your contacts to know where you are and that’ll you probably be back in about an hour.

Here are some other great examples of Status Updates:

  • Looking for a Date Friday night in Scottsdale
  • Having dinner with the Girls by ASU
  • At the Scottsdale Fashion Square Mall
  • Going for a bike ride along the Arizona Canal
  • Exploring this site, I just signed up!
  • Single in Phoenix, in search of a cool guy
  • Single in Phoenix, in search of a cool gal

You can post your first status update by moving your mouse over the “What are you up to” text in the left column. This will automagically show a dialog box where you can type your status update.

Have Fun!
