Sweet on Geeks: Find Your Perfect Geek Mate

sweet on geeksLast week I watched a clip on a morning show about a relatively new dating site called Sweet on Geeks. The idea is that mainstream dating sites like Match and Jdate just don't cut it for geeks of either sex.

Membership is free and apparently the site monetizes itself from advertising. The couple that was interviewed on tv said they met over their love of Linux. Now they go to Batman movies and code PHP to get in the mood.

As I browsed a variety of profiles, living at home was a popular choice. One thing they ask that I've never seen before on a dating site: Hygiene. Most people say they are clean. That's always a good thing. Other parts of the site include an event directory that features a lot of "Con" events. They should look at adding a casual games section. Get members playing games online and interacting with each other while hitting them with relevant advertising.

Finding the right someone is very difficult and if Sweet on Geeks helps people find the right match, that's awesome. I wonder if they have a "FriendFeed Lover" option?

Here's an example of a profile page. Can anyone say 1998 design? All we need is the digging construction man!
