Post tax day depression starting to lift. Joined GetREELed, a social network for fisherman. After a day on the site I am already hosting an urban fishing expidition in May. That’s why I love niche sites. I’ve met more interesting people that actually want to hang out together in 24 hours than I have on Facebook in a long time.
Speaking of connecting, I was just hanging out in a chat forum with a bunch of Silicon Valley A-listers including Michael Arrington of Tech Crunch fame. An interesting bunch, indeed. What did I learn tonight? Sometimes it’s important to sit back, shut up and listen hard. And we talked about puppets.
Maholo has a category about dating, the How To Date Online was fair, marginally better than About.com’s Dating category. I’m in the running to edit the next edition of a popular online dating book series, fingers crossed!
LoopyLove has a cool video snapshot feature using Userplane chat. I’ve been spending so much time in front of a webcam lately, feels second nature to add video to my profile. Tomorrow night is the first taping of the dating radio show. We’ll need a few shows to get the rhythm down, then I want to be interviewing all industry folks and I’m even going to dust off ProfileDoctor and do some on-air profile reviews. Should be fun.
Could this lead to getting asked out by the meter maid? Only in Singapore.
I still don’t fully understand the Facebook privacy controls. Trial by error could be embarrassing and I have a ton of sketchy dating apps installed. Any single woman that views my profile probably moves on to the next guy immediately, which is understandable. All for the sake of research.
the Unofficial eHarmony blog has a list Businesses We’d Like eHarmony to Venture Into.
