Internet dating started from the decades of the sixties and seventies when computer dating was introduced to the young and the hip. As people clamored for the chance to get matched with their soulmates, computerized/digital dating took on other forms, like those that also use video and those that also use the phone. Eventually this systematic way of dating was transformed into bytes through emails and chat rooms. Presently, there are thousands upon thousands of Internet dating sites and some are even suited to a specific interest, age group, or religion.

But the granddaddy of all these Internet innovations came from Gary Kremen and Peng Ong with their online personal ads site which would be known up to this day as Match.com. In its over a decade of presence on cyberspace, this site has served over millions of millions of satisfied Internet daters in many countries worldwide.

And guess what? Just because you go Internet dating doesn't mean you're a geek. So don't go on thinking that only losers date online. Lots of decent, energetic, and successful people go online each day creating their dating profiles.
