Because I was the Acting CTO for eHarmony at it's start, I quite often get introduced to people who have an idea for a startup company that is based on some kind of matching algorithm. They describe the company as the eHarmony of careers, clothes, jobs, college, tutoring services, doctors, service companies, investments, etc.

One of the places where eHarmony really took off was on radio. We’re pleased with its growth but, as with any Web-based business, we’re looking for additional organizations we can help. What networking events in Los Angeles or Southern California do you go to? It's great to know that you have the radio and TV background.

I went to an event by Amazon on their Amazon Web Services in Santa Monica today. eHarmony and MyShape seem they could use it to distribute load around matching especially during media events. The focus was S3 - storage service, EC2 - their compute cloud, their queuing system, and their flexible payment system.

eHarmony for me fell into that camp. We end up using WordPress a lot as the marketing front-end of our web sites. In this talk, we spent most of our time on Technical Advisors: Every Web/Mobile Startup Must Have One and how they should be helping you: Specify the right things to be built. We needed the matching algorithm.
