[meta] Why is this not on the frontpage? I see links with less than 10 points from an hour ago there, but not this link with more than 10 points from less than half an hour ago. Not that I care that much for this particular link, but it seems strange.<p><i>Edit:</i> seems to be there now (approx. 20 minutes later). Maybe there was some change in the ranking algorithm recently? I don't believe I saw it acting like this before.
I like the idea. Some feedback: I started filling out the form but once I realised there was ~10 input fields and not ~2 I just quit. Also, something tells me that you're more likely to actually deliver good matches if you make everything simpler. Not only will you be able to handle the data in a good way but you'll probably have more people join.
Very cool. A similar idea had been buzzing around in my head for the last couple of months - you enter some attributes about yourself and on the other end get 1 match per week with whom you should connect with. Great way to meet new people. You guys beat me to it! Would love to see how this evolves.<p>EDIT:<p>After filling out the form, I think some things can be combined/simplified to make it easier to parse:
- Many twitter users I follow tend to be the authors of the blogs I read as well. Maybe just connect with Twitter and get a listing of all the people I follow?
- Also what format should the songs be listed in? or maybe just keep that limited to artists & bands.
- Utilize Facebook Graph to pre-populate interests, music, movies.
Well it definitely provided some mental projections into how wonderful would it be to have more people around me that are interested in achieving the same things. Filling out those forms felt nice and regardless of the results, I feel strangely satisfied.
It says "Anonymous and secure", but I don't see HTTPS in the URL. When I prefix <a href="https://" rel="nofollow">https://</a> Firefox complains about untrusted certificate. Am I missing something?
I'd love to have some way to add more interests after the fact, because I immediately realized I wanted to add one more thing after I hit submit. Maybe just even resubmit the form with the same email. Or enter your email and it'll bring up a profile. Something like that.
Didn't look at the website yet, but just from the link: Try Google+. I don't know most people that I circled there. Not that I have Facebook, but when I look at Facebook with others it's more like talking to people you already know. With Google+' trending topics (I don't think Facebook has that, nor is Facebook as content-oriented as Google+) it's easy to see others posting about a popular subject, see their profile and posts, and circle them. And of course exploring topics you like with the Google+ search.<p>Edit: Submitted. Let's see where this goes :)
