While some dating platforms are providing convenience at the swipe of the thumb, this one exists in the form of a Google Chrome extension. Tab differentiates itself from sites and apps like Tinder and OKCupid with the simple act of opening a new tab in your browser.
The online dating Chrome extension is currently in beta and allows users to find a potential partner every time they open a new tab. From there, you simply tap the heart to see if it's a match and get chatting. If you don't like that person, keep browsing the Internet. The algorithm developed by Adam Hall, Shib Hussain and Dan Lowe is supposed to offer the feelings of serendipity and unexpectedly meeting someone new.
The dating platform will appeal to those who don't want to put in the effort of creating lengthy profiles or invest too much time in the enterprise.
