GamerDNA acquires 360voice.com

June 9, 2023 By Dennis Bouchand Leave a Comment

gamerdna.pngGamerDNA has completed the acquisition of It Can Talk Inc., owner of the popular Xbox community website 360voice.com.

The Xbox 360 is a popular videogame console with an installed base of over 18 million units, and the 360voice.com website is a community that serves this audience. 360voice.com had the unique advantage of being an early member of the Microsoft XCDP (Xbox Community Developers Program), which enabled it to create software that “autoblogs” about an Xbox owner’s gameplay, and allows players to challenge each other in competitions for real prizes.

The founders of It Can Talk Inc. will relocate to Cambridge, Massachusetts, where they’ll continue as part of the GamerDNA team. Trapper Markelz, CEO of It Can Talk, will become the VP of Products for GamerDNA.

It Can Talk is the second acquisition made by GamerDNA. In November 2006, the company acquired Uberguilds, a network of popular MMORPG community websites.

New dating site for intelligent people only launches

June 9, 2023 By Cristina Ledesma 10 Comments

A new dating site exclusively for intelligent people has just launched. IntelligentPeople.com is an online dating and networking community which requires that its members pass an IQ test in order to join.

IntelligentPeople.com is intended for people with an IQ in the top 15% of the population. In comparison, you need an IQ in the top 2% of the population to become a member of Mensa. People with an IQ in the top 15%, are said to be “highly intelligent”. Most often, highly intelligent people communicate and interact best with other intelligent people. IntelligentPeople.com was created on the basis of that fact, with the purpose of giving intelligent people an opportunity to meet and form relationships, regardless of location, education and social status.

To become a member of IntelligentPeople.com, applicants need to pass the IQ test required for admission. The IQ test consists only of black and white images and is designed to be culture fair, meaning it will test intelligence while minimizing cultural or educational biases.

(Editor’s note: I wonder if this dating site for intelligent people is an intelligent idea at all)

Features include FindMe, which enables users to display what rooms they are currently participating in, and pet emoticons to enhance their one-to-one and community chat experiences. These features, along with the company’s Super IM capability, which allows free videoconferencing calls for up to 10 people at a time, as well as its recent partnership with Vumber to offer virtual phone numbers, separate Paltalk from other voice and video chat providers by providing the most robust offering to users who want flexibility in how they communicate with friends around the world.
