Badoo: Using the PC & Mobile Relationship App | Social networks

Badoo is a social network that lets you find people around you to start a friendship or dating relationship. The format is very similar to Tinder, where you can choose people anonymously from a virtual catalog, but you can also discover new contacts in non-anonymous ways, such as inviting to private chats or liking profiles.
