The iPod revolutionized the way we consume music. The iPhone made us crazy for apps. And now the iPad is getting ready to rock our sex lives or at least help improve our search for someone to flirt with.

In late May, Skout.com will become the first dating site to launch an iPad application. The free app will be similar to the version that’s already available to phone users: members can enter search criteria, such as age range, gender and physical preferences, and a HotMap will show in real time the locations of active Skout users who fit those criteria. The idea is to help members meet up and see if magic happens. The cool thing about the iPad adaptation, says CEO Christian Wiklund, is that its screen is large enough to let the user view the map while simultaneously chatting and searching through another member’s photos. (Membership is free, but the site charges $7 a month for features like finding out which members think you’re hot.)

As experts say, “It’s the iPad that’s going to enable developers to create entirely new ways to browse, discover and connect with singles.”

How else can it be used?
Alex Willcock, CEO of VisualDNA, which produces image-based quizzes for dating sites as alternatives to lengthy questionnaires, said “he iPad allows dating sites to start providing users with a fun, engaging and enriching experience while embracing the key elements of the iPad — simplicity and spontaneity.”

Steve Odom, CEO and founder of dating site Gelato says: “Profile pictures play a key role in online dating, and the iPad gives sites an opportunity to play up the presentation of their clientele. “It’s big, it’s beautiful, and it’s perfect for dating sites”. Gelato plans to unveil the redesign in June. (read more at time.com)
