From Apple HomePod to Google Daydream: All the Things We Loved in May
At its F8 developer conference, Facebook announced Facebook Dating, an in-app feature that will spice up the social media platform with some romance, meaningful romance--or so Facebook hopes. The feature bears striking similarity to the dating app Hinge, which allows users to scroll through detailed profiles and start conversations not by merely saying hello but by commenting on a specific profile item. For example, you can click on a picture of a crush's trip to Morocco and mention that you've been there, too. You can also simply "like" an image, video, or question response to signify your interest. So far, Hinge's creators have played off the similarities as a compliment, and there's not much else they can do about it anyway.
