MeetMe, Inc. (NASDAQ: MEET), the public market leader for social discovery, has released a new feature within its MeetMe app that makes it quick and easy to discover new mobile chat partners. The new feature, called “Hit Me Up,” appears within the Chat section and lets users indicate that they are available to chat right now.

Users viewing Hit Me Up can filter potential chat partners by age, gender, and location. When users add themselves to Hit Me Up, they’ll be shown for one hour. After their hour is up, users may add themselves to the top of the list again to show they continue to be ready to chat now.

“We strive to facilitate quality chat interactions for our users,” noted MeetMe CEO Geoff Cook. “One aspect of quality chat interactions is immediate replies. Hit Me Up is designed to find someone who wants to chat right now. Since the recent launch of Hit Me Up on iOS last week, we’ve seen icebreaker activity increase 50% and new conversations increase 8% on that platform. Hit Me Up is the latest in a deep pipeline of features aimed at driving more chats and increasing chat quality.”

Hit Me Up is now available within the MeetMe app for both iPhone and Android.
