EHarmony.com Inc. this month received U.S. Patent No. 6,735,568, which describes a “method and system for identifying people who are likely to have a successful relationship.” Can the elusive art of matchmaking be reduced to equations and databases?
“EHarmony, which costs $50 per month or $250 per year, doesn’t guarantee a diamond ring – or even a first date. Researchers reject one in five people who complete the free questionnaire and, according to the index, aren’t the marrying type.” With over four million users, eHarmony is the Internet’s fastest growing relationship service.
