We’ve all seen the commercials that match you to a “compatible” member using questionnaires about how spontaneous and funny you are, or if you like scary movies, etc. Online dating websites, or “connection sites,” in a way, help people get in touch with like-minded individuals who share passions and interests that may not come up in a first conversation. Although these websites may seem ridiculous to the lay-user, a niche market indeed exists for their services. Who knows, maybe a website for “that thing you’ve always wanted to do, but were afraid to bring up” is out there somewhere, too. Here are some ones we thought were innovative, curious, and a little humorous.
Cheekd.com distinguishes itself from many other sites out there because it combines a real-life “first impression” with a follow-up interaction online. Members pay for a pack of 50 business cards which display a personalized code that the recipient then enters on the Cheekd website to get more information about you. The cards, according to the site, “charm and pique the curiosity of your intended.” How you choose to dole out the cards, however, is up to you.
