After all my well known dating fumbles, plenty of people have suggesting eharmony.com to me. Apparently most people online are quite serious about relationships, and not so much just about casual sex.
Thats partly as the site was originally set up by a fundamentalist christian, which you might think is a bit dodgy. Perhaps more dodgy is that it took a court order to force eHarmony to allow gays to use their site.
Apparently the phd that set eHarmony up doesnt understand how gay dating works and so doesn't want to try it. However, after two lawsits eHarmony have now set up a site exclusively for those gays, keeping them seperate from the rest of the eHarmony clientelle
I saw on abc news that facebook may be replacing eHarmony as the biggest online dating site. One Kelly Hildebrandt was bored of looking at certain sites on the internet when she had a look to see if anyone shared her name. She found one guy who lived in Texas. A year later he popped the question by sticking a diamond ring into a trasure box and burying it on the beach.
Apparently them both having the same name has had some problems though with people getting them confused, so perhaps stick to eHarmony.
Eharmony are defending themselves against a patent suit by a uk company that claim to have a patent over simliar people matching technology on their site, eRecruitment.
There doesnt seem to be much to the suit, due to the different natures of the sites and how old and established eHarmony is.
The well known politician Joe the Plumber said that he'd like to beat the hell out of Nancy Pelosi, I'm not sure if he meant it sexually.
He said that at a conservative blogging get together, and they all seemed to lap it up. Apparently he was pissed off that Pelosi said that drowning out oppising views at town halls was unamerican, to be fair free speech is supposed to be a big deal here. So ladies, would you date Joe the Plumber if you came across his eharmony profile?
