Short Description
|
: |
Backed by the monstrous power of its parent company, Yahoo!, the site offers lots of extras and great graphics. Yahoo!, founded in 1994, launched in 1997. There are "several million" members, although membership numbers aren't specific at the site. Because you can so easily join the site if you are a general Yahoo! member, the membership is sure to increase rapidly.

Overall Rating

is a great site for heterosexuals. Outstanding extras, reliability and great service. If it isn't as hip or trendy as some of the newcomers, is still one of the best in terms of general dating services. The thoughtful features that make it fun, like the "Spin" feature and the "Mutual Matches" make this a good site to play around on. You won't have any unpleasant surprises and you'll enjoy the quality of people you meet. is really a good mainstream site, limited only by its demographics. The ties to Yahoo! are either a nice extra or a non-issue, depending upon personal preferences. Limitations include payment options and the restrictions based on geography.
