Age is Just a Number: Adventures in Online Dating

D.S. White brings us a nicely woven collection of articles on the blogosphere, relationships, holidays, reviews and recommendations on online dating sites for African Americans and last but not least, the first six episodes of the serial memoir: Age is Just a Number:- "Age is just a number." Is it really that simple? Divine's journey of self-discovery is an often humorous, sometimes unbelievable, and at times achingly sad recounting of her shellshock upon reentering the world of dating after a fourteen year absence. On the journey she discovers online dating Web sites, IM, and chat rooms. In her journal, she reveals her bewilderment as she tries to navigate the new "dating rules" that allow twenty year olds to feel emboldened enough to approach thirty-seven year olds with the line "age is just a number."
