If you've always wanted to be on top of the latest singles trends, then you need to know about Zap, the digital trend that's sweeping singles mixers in Los Angeles. These mixers are trendy parties attended by people who all have one thing in common - a necklace that's got a digital device which recorded their previously-entered dating information. As they mingle, they can casually point their necklace in the direction of someone else and they devices will exchange information. After a moment, the device will tell them if they are compatible or not using a green, yellow, red light system.



The device was created by the company One Key Away. In an interview for an article by Dana Ford, one of the mixer attendees said that it's just a good icebreaker to start contact. So, if you have trouble making that first step, you can let your accessories do it for you. One Key Away has both gay and straight mixers, and they're looking for people to start launching them in various U.S. cities. You can check out their website if you're interested.
