Redux

The Redux presenters were young and enthusiastic about the launch of their new “people discovery” solution.  The Redux social networking/online dating site uses advanced algorithims to predict what users will like in potential mates based on their actions and personality preferences.  The algorithms are socially aware and can not only predict what type of person a user will like, but also predicts what types of events (concerts, festivals, etc.) will be of interest.
