Its the Friday before Valentine’s Day. I have done so many media interviews that every time the phone rings I pick up and start reciting industry stats. Speaking of phones, new Verizon iPhone in the house. I dropped a call with Match yesterday, three times. When AT&T starts messing with my reputation and ability to conduct business, I’m out. It was fun to do videochat on Skype, we kept sneaking in bites of our lunches during lulls in the conversation.

My Q&A with Match and OKCupid will be ready early next week. In the meantime, you can read about eHarmony getting hacked, Mad-Libs Profile Questions, Spark Networks chasing after shiny objects, watch me in a dating documentary, see how SingleSquare Layered Dating on Top of Foursquare, and most important, if you run a dating site, you absolutely must sign up for the Paid Subscription Marketing Via Facebook Webinar.

Many of the stories I cover here are submitted by email, contact form, Twitter and Facebook. Have a tip? Send it in.

Looking back at the past week’s posts, I’ve been in the groove, hope you think so too. If you like what you read, consider a display or text ad or a sponsored post. I love blogging about the business of online dating and I’m experiencing a lull in in consulting gigs. Show some love and promote your business here in front of the $1.5 billion dating industry. Thank you!

Don’t forget to sign up for the newsletter. I’m almost done procrastinating about it, really.
