“Wings” Application Brings One-Click Dating to Facebook
Triangulate, Inc. today announced that “Wings,” the first data-driven dating application on Facebook, has been selected to be featured on the Facebook Application Dashboard. In addition, Triangulate also announced that they have secured funding from Trinity Ventures and Rick Thompson, Chairman of Playdom. The company has raised a total of $750,000 to bring Wings to market and to continue development on applications that capitalize on the marriage of analytics and social media.
Founded by three Harvard graduates in 2009, Triangulate helps social citizens use their own data to improve their lives, the lives of their friends, and the world around them. Wings is the first application available from the company.
Wings brings “one-click dating” to Facebook by removing the burden of profile-building. Wings uses an innovative social compatibility engine to find matches based on a user’s online activities. Wings is one of only ten third-party applications selected to appear on the Facebook Application Dashboard. Facebook selected Wings because it utilizes Facebook data in new ways and incorporates Facebook’s new payment system, Facebook Credits.
