Online Bingo Continues Innovations

Old-style bingo halls have incorporated all sorts of great technologies and innovations since entering the online era, and the latest example of this is Bingocams' launch of the first ever bingo speed dating room.

Bingocams celebrated its first birthday Wednesday by launching its bingo speed dating room. Utilizing existing webcam technology, it opened up a speed dating room for 18 rounds, complete with a live chat host playing the role of Cupid. The room was open to everyone, but limited to 60 spaces.

According to the online bingo site's marketing manager, it was the player demographic statistics that really led them to launch this unique promotion. Just over two-thirds of Bingo Cams' players are female, and the site thought this initiative would be a good way to encourage them to keep playing while also helping them find a husband!

One of the most recent innovations in the world of online bingo has been the introduction of cameras, which allow players from all across the globe to play from the comfort of their own home, but to feel as if they are in the same room as their fellow competitors. Being a community activity, bingo needed this online innovation even more than its poker and sports betting counterparts.

Live chat rooms add to that feeling of community, as they allow players to chat to one another while competing in the various bingo halls. Top sites like Jackpot City Bingo and bet365 Bingo have chat moderators who ensure a good atmosphere, and introduce you to the best promotions.

Again, Bingo Cams has found a way to make webcams fun, but promising to replay every winning moment seen in each bingo room. Players who produce particularly interesting or amazing celebrations go in the running to be selected by administrators for a £1000 monthly first prize.

Online bingo sites have a reputation as being a female-friendly activity, something which all good sites understand. For example, top bingo website Jackpot City Bingo allows you to be taken through the site by host Bella. She informs you all about standard bingo games and bonuses, targeting in particular the popular gambling habits of your average British woman.

Of course, where there are women, there are also men, and the males out there can feel perfectly comfortable playing the latest in bingo games. Most sites carry version of UK style 90 ball bingo and US style 75 ball bingo, and all of these are suited to males as well as females.
