It has been since the 90's since I did the chatting thing, so I am not sure of the general market audience for this service. However, it seems just about every single person I know subscribes to an internet dating service. I wonder when and if Google will make a foray into this market? It does seem Google is puting all the pieces of the puzzle together to support such a service. At anywhere from $30 to $50 per month, it could be a significant revenue source.

I will say this...every new service Google has introduced, it has been head and shoulders above all equivilent services out there. Has anybody tried google chat...how does it compare to the others? For me personally, I refuse to chat...so boring and chat makes you fat.

Google knows who I am, where I am, how much I spend and earn within a certain narrow likelitude, what I like to make sites about and what I search for when not working.

Do they really need to know who I'm seeing and what I like to do while I'm seeing them?

Hmmm...google just might be Super Cupid. Just think, google could advertise that they can match couples based on 1 million areas compatibility based on search patterns.

That would probably be a better system than the geeky guy on TV advertising a "free" personality profile based on 49 areas of compatibility.
