Toothing
A New Term For
Hi-Tech Sex with Strangers
"Toothing
may be a new way for singles to hook up outside of singles bars.
The word "Toothing" comes from the Bluetooth technology
that allows users to send text and pictures to one another.
Users
began to notice that they could send anonymous messages to one
another called "bluejacking" and thus a new world of
flirtation began.
"Toothers"
send out a greeting randomly and if anyone in the area has the
technology they have the option of replying. As this trend continues
more interest in it has become apparent with companies like Serendipity
(a wireless dating focused alternative) to take off. The service
allows users to put in qualities they are looking for in a person
and if someone in the area has a match, then the cell phones will
communicate with one another and allow them to meet.
If
you ever received a note in grade school that said if you want
to meet me check this box... then you'll have no problem with
this new software!
