Consumating is a new dating site I found out about from the developers at sixapart, the producers of the weblog software Movable Type, which btw runs this and all other Corante blogs.
Normally I don’t give much thought to new dating sites unless they provide a new feature, marketing angle or have insane amounts of startup cash (remember the $5M = 100,000 paid members rule.)
Consumating’s redeeming feature is that it’s a dating site for bloggers, hipsters, freaks and geeks, a sorely underrepresented dating niche. They use tags to help members self-identify. Click a tag and see who else is using this tag to describe themselves. Easy and fun and gets us away from the generic(read boring) way we search on dating sites today.

Here’s a new site to check out: http://www.appledates.com. I think you will find this is the first dating website that combines a high-quality edited listings database with an online dating system. I’m fed super cool listings every week from two New York City publications. Members post their profiles to the events that they want to attend and find dates around those events. Want to find a date to Surrealism U.S.A. and Bonni Benrubi Gallery? Post your profile on that listing on appledates.com and see what happens. Appledates includes the first personals-enabled classifieds system. Looking for a roommate? appledates.com classifieds lets you post your ad AND your personal profile, together. Now potential roomies can learn about you in advance. Dump your old dating site!
