Is it just Facebook? Are there additional factors? Money is obvious. Power? FB covers social circle... What are other things. Are there any female opinions on this?
What about references? LinkedIn style networking, rather than random strangers. Testimonials from friends or even friends of friends, especially women who can testify that they make a good platonic friend, might carry weight and get closer to the old style of blind dates.
For me personally I'd like to see something that would facilitate a date... something that the girl could creep all my information and then instead of the tedious dance of "courtship" its just " Okay, I like you so we're going to do X "
