Not sure what’s going on in the mind of your date or spouse? All you have to do is install Skype, purchase Love Detector, have them download and install Skype, call them, and LoveDetector will tell you if they want to boil bunnies, break up or get married.

Love Detector for Skype is a new software technology, designed to detect love and other relevant emotions over a Skype\telephone conversation conducted over your PC.

In 10 years, this sort of thing will be commonplace, for now, it’s a fun gimmick.

I don’t have a PC, so I can’t test this. If anyone tries it, leave a comment.
