Social media giant Facebook has announced the launch of a new service for singles.
The company announced today that Dating, its new matchmaking service, has launched in the US. Facebook flagged they'd introduce the feature more than a year ago, but had been slow to roll out the feature around the world.
Users can link their Facebook and Instagram posts and create a separate profile using the Dating feature, and can connect with Facebook's 2 billion users around the world.
"Facebook Dating allows you to match with friends of friends and/or people not in your friend circle," said a blog post from Nathan Sharp, head of the project.
One of the features, "Secret Crush," allows people who are friends to connect if they both secretly express an interest in each other, news.com.au reported.
