Looking for Love the Techyness Way.

It was a stormy Sunday evening and I was hanging out at Cafe Intermezzo in Atlanta with a new friend. While discussing the dating scene as newcomers to the greater Atlanta area, she mentioned that she had been using Match.com for a few months.

Immediately, my “techyness.com is looking for new blog content” light bulb brightens immediately, and I ask her to please continue with her story.

We continue to discuss the fact that it’s often a challenge to meet classy, professional men in bars (you could say the same about women) but if you were at this club I visited on Friday, I think you’d probably be interested in analyzing the situation.

She challenged me to create an account and try it out.

So I did.

Consider this my first investigative assignment for Techyness. I have committed to a month with Match.com and will be reporting back to you, my loyal readers (love you!) on my thoughts on it’s UI (user interface), findings, and just about anything funny that happens to me while putting “techyness love” out there in cyberspace.

Let’s call it a test in social interaction over the internet.

I figure, hey, if you’re not willing to try something, you can’t make a decision on it.

    Forget the paid sites like match, eharmony etc. They cost big bucks but they don’t really add a lot of value compared with the free sites. Take a look at some free dating sites and you’ll likely have as good a time, if not better. I hear some of the big paid sites often match you with people who can’t respond since they don’t pay for service anyway!

    just my friendly advice :)
