Gahbunga!

A riff on the Dodgeball and Hot or Not concepts, Gahbunga is a new SMS service that works like this: go on a date, take a cameraphone picture of your date and send it to Gahbunga, who in turn send it to all your friends for them to rate your date. Before the date is over you get back a message with the summary of your friends' opinions.

Will this work? I don't know. I have to admit, when I was in NY late last year and first heard about Dodgeball, I didn't "get it" (until Google acquired them, that is!).

But I'm not sure I'd want to be the guy taking a picture of his date, I don't think I'd really care to get real-time pictures of my friends' dates to give feedback, and I'm not sure about having my picture taken by a date, knowing I was going to be rated by all her friends right then and there...
