Operation Match : ウィキペディア英語版 | Operation Match Operation Match was the first computer dating service in the United States, begun in 1965. Users filled out a paper questionnaire which they mailed in with a $3 fee. The questionnaire was geared to young college students seeking a date, not a marriage partner. Questions included “Do you believe in a God who answers prayer?” and “Is extensive sexual activity in preparation for marriage part of ‘growing up?’”〔(Nominee Left College to Be Matchmaker ) Philip Shenons, New York Times, October 30, 1987〕 The questionnaires were transferred to punched cards〔(New dating craze sweeps the campus, boy, girl, computer ), Look Magazine, February 1966〕 and processed on an IBM 7090 computer at the Avco service bureau in Wilmington, Massachusetts.〔 A week or two later, the user received an IBM 1401 print out in the mail listing the names and telephone numbers of their matches.〔(New dating apps cut to the chase, set up dates quickly ), Tracey Lein, LA Times, January 29, 2015〕 Operation Match was started by Harvard University undergraduate students Jeffrey C. Tarr, David L. Crump and Vaughan Morrill, with help from Douglas H. Ginsburg, then a student at Cornell〔(Operation Match ), T. Jay Mathews, Harvard Crimson, November 3, 1965〕 who later became Chief Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. 〔(The Famous Founder of Operation Match ), David Leonhardt, New York Times, March 28, 2006〕 Tarr, Crump and Ginsburg formed a company called Compatibility Research, Inc. and rolled out the service in several cities.〔 ==References==
