OkCupid Launches Dating Test on Facebook
A small bird flew up to my window and said I should go check out the OKCupid Dating Test on Facebook. I do not understand why the application logo is a scary weaponized military helicopter, but then I see that cupid is the pilot and the ammunition is arrows. The...Facebook Dating Applications, Anything Goes
I’ve been getting a lot of emails from Facebook dating applications this week after signing up for about 20 of them last weekend.

Good timing, I’m doing due diligence on a number of dating properties at the moment,...The Dating Industry’s Unsavory SEO Practices
Widgetbait Gone Wild talks about using widgets to build links back to dating sites. Matthew Inman did this for his site, JustSayHi, and Google spanked him big time for inappropriate linkbaiting. Some of you might remember I left SEOmoz last year to join up with...Helping Users Help Themselves
Browsing PlentyOfFish, I came across a new link: New Search –> Users who haven’t gotten an email in over 24 hours sorted by last online. What a great idea. I’ve built out email communications campaigns for clients and have pushed for this type of...
