Let me go back and do my classic search for "eHarmony of" startup and find a few examples to use: People to Projects (Managers) People to Jobs (Hiring Managers) Students to Tutors Each of these involve matching people to people (I’ve stayed away from content matching in these examples). What do I mean by this?

eHarmony for start-up / advisor relationships? I've recently begun a round table that I'm hoping will help in a small way, but even there it's going to barely scratch the surface. Maybe Andrew, Chris and I will figure out a way to address the friction around this. Actually, the friction is even higher trying to find a partner for a start-up.

One of the places where eHarmony really took off was on radio. A few years ago, my CTO spotted a need that local groups and organizations have in handling RSVPs and registrations for meetings and events. It's great to know that you have the radio and TV background. Hey, radio. Maybe that would make sense as a marketing channel.

Because of our work on eHarmony, we often find matching as a core component of systems. Interesting to hear Betsy say that the technology was not differentiated. Still I think the concept is fantastic if the model can be figured out to make it work. It's funny to hear Betsy describe it as dating for product placement.

eHarmony for me fell into that camp. Equity-Only CTO and Equity-Only Developers Technology Roles in Startups Want to Know the Difference Between a CTO and a VP Engineering? Simple MVPs get built with less the 3 Programmer Months worth of effort (that's 3 months a single programmer working full-time).

eHarmony came with lots of research behind the dimensions of compatibility and how those related to marriage longevity and happiness. One of the common questions that I commonly get is: Tony, what inputs should we use as the basis for our matching algorithm? Every time I hear that question, it worries me a bit.

eHarmony and MyShape seem they could use it to distribute load around matching especially during media events. I'm hoping we can have one or two of the users come into our CTO Forum to talk about their experience.
