ShidduchVision


Click on above image to enlarge and see letter of haskamos.
In an article entitled "First Date 2.0: ShidduchVision aims to ease shidduch crisis" by Ben Harris, the following was reported:
"A new effort based in Baltimore represents the latest attempt to address what is often described as a crisis of Orthodox singles unable to find suitable mates. The new service, known as ShidduchVision, will permit Orthodox singles to go on first “dates” via video conference rather than travel to far-off locales to meet potential suitors. A local representative for the service will host participants while they conduct up to three meetings over a secure high-speed link, after which they will decide if they want to take the relationship further by meeting in person. At $18 per user per session -- the costs likely will be borne by the men -- the service aims not only to save the money of inter-city travel, but also to avoid the heartache of traveling a long distance for what ends up being a bad date. “This will allow many, many more options, especially for those who are termed 'out-of-towners,' ” said Jeff Cohn, the Baltimore businessman and founder of the Make a Shidduch Foundation who started ShidduchVision."

Od yishama be'arei yehudah
uvechutzot Yerushalaim:
Kol sason vekol simchah,
kol chatan vekol kalah.
It will yet be heard in the cities of Judea
and the parts of Jerusalem:
Sound of joy and sound of gladness,
voice of groom and bride.
