The Blinka.me website is attempting to take that whole &#34;reconnect&#34; effort and webify it with some good ol&#8217; Web 2.0 charm.

They would put up an ad and hope the other person would read it and remember the event.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.everyjoe.com/uncovertheinternet/files/2009/10/blinkamewebsiteuncovered.gif"><img style="border-bottom: 0px;border-left: 0px;border-top: 0px;border-right: 0px" border="0" alt="blinka-me-website-uncovered" src="http://www.everyjoe.com/uncovertheinternet/files/2009/10/blinkamewebsiteuncovered_thumb.gif" width="590" height="248" /></a> </p>
<p>The <a title="Blinka.me website" href="http://www.blinka.me" target="_blank">Blinka.me website</a> is attempting to take that whole &quot;reconnect&quot; effort and webify it with some good ol&#8217; Web 2.0 charm.</p>
<p>Combining the simple idea of the classified ad, with the power of the Internet, GPS, mapping and social media should make those efforts pay off in a significantly higher rate of return for individuals.</p>
<p>The <a title="Blinka.me website" href="http://www.blinka.me" target="_blank">Blinka.me website</a> is a little more pro-active with their efforts though. With <a title="Blinka.me" href="http://www.blinka.me" target="_blank">Blinka.me</a>, when you meet that guy or girl at the supermarket and have a nice, unexpected conversation, just tell them &quot;Blinka Me&quot; later. Then you can list the event on <a title="Blinka.me" href="http://www.blinka.me" target="_blank">Blinka.me</a> with the date and a bit about the interaction that will make it unique. The other person will come to the site and &quot;look for you&quot;. </p>
<p>You can then follow-up on the conversation and learn more about each other, but still without sharing any real personal contact information or data. After you decide both of you are normal and not a psycho axe-murderer or the type of girl that boils a rabbit in your kitchen, you can pursue the relationship a little further.</p>
<p><a title="Blinka.me website" href="http://www.blinka.me" target="_blank">Go uncover a new relationship, again, at Blinka.me</a></p>

I never was much into the bar scene of meeting and dating people, but if I had been hopefully I wouldn&#8217;t have been the type of guy that would have necessitated having the Rejection Hotline service used on me.
The dating scene is full of people who can&#8217;t take a hint or can&#8217;t take &#8220;no&#8221; for an answer (and many who apparently can&#8217;t take showers, can&#8217;t brush their teeth, or can&#8217;t seem to go out in social settings without awkwardly embarrassing themselves).

<p>Has anyone out there used <a title="Rejection Hotline" href="http://www.rejectionhotline.com" target="_blank">Rejection Hotline</a> or something similar? Did it work? How bad of a loser was the guy/gal?</p>
