International dating

To put it simply, Internet dating is all about using the Internet as a
means to find and make contact with someone. Be it a pen pal,
friend, sporting partner, casual date, relationship or your soulmate.
It’s all possible, and there are a literally millions of people out there
right now in every corner of the globe just willing and waiting.
You may have heard stories in the press about people meeting,
falling in love and even getting married on the Internet in ‘virtual
weddings’ without having met. That’s the world of the uninformed
misguided media; in reality things couldn’t be more different.
So you aren’t some computer geek, and you don’t want to meet
some computer geek right? “Heck, I don’t even own a computer”
I hear you saying. Well that’s ok, you don’t need to own a computer,
and the vast majority of the people on the Internet today are
‘normal’ people, just like you. That wasn’t how it was just a few
very short years ago, but now the Internet has grown to be almost
as ubiquitous as the telephone, and people from every facet of life
are using the Internet.
The Internet is fast becoming one of the easiest, most popular,
and surprisingly to most, one of the safest forms of meeting people.
Read on and you’ll find out why.
Assumptions
This book is written assuming that you know at least what the
Internet is and how to use it in a basic sense. For example, you
should be conversant with using a web browser and email at a
minimum. If you don’t know anything about these things then there

are countless books and courses out there that will get you started.
Once you have this basic understanding you are ready to tackle
Internet dating.
Also, this book will not go into detail about how to use certain
features of products mentioned, like ICQ, newsgroups, chat clients
and so forth, as each one would need (and have) a book in their
own right. But in most cases you will be directed to web pages to
find out more about them. The focus will be on the techniques and
the best way to make use of each product for the purposes of Internet
dating.
