As the saying goes, (and as the great Michael Jackson has said) "It don’t matter if you're black or white." InterracialMatch.com is an online dating site for those that agree. Users join because they are fascinated by other cultures or especially attracted to a race besides their own. 

Run by parent site SuccessfulMatch.com, InterracialMatch resembles sibling sites BikerKiss.com and PositiveSingles.com in appearance and application. While this happy online dating family does offer highly segmented audiences to online daters seeking singles in a specific demographic, SuccessfulMatch sites leave much to be desired for those seeking a … Read More

Your single self may be a product of nurture and nature, but your relationships are a product of compatibility and chemistry, or so says Chemistry.com, Match.com's sister online dating site. Chemistry.com differs from its sibling site since it targets singles who are serious about finding long and meaningful relationships.

Chemistry.com uses extensive personality profiling to access the personality type of its users and hand-select compatible matches. The fancy-schmancy personality profiling is based upon the work of biological anthropologist and expert on human attraction, Dr. Helen Fisher.

If you don't think matchmaking is rocket science, well, maybe you're right. Either way, it took a handful of Harvard alums to create OKCupid, a site that uses math, psychology and a series of questions to derive a percent compatibility among its members. Simply sign up (which takes about four seconds and costs nothing) and start answering. There's no fine print, no cost for anything (including messaging) and no need for an Ivy-league degree to answer most of these brain-busters, including: What is your relationship to marijuana? How often are you open with your feelings? Is … Read More

More than one million singles have logged on to the Lavalife, which claims to be the online dating site "where singles click." Cute. So hold onto your hats, folks, and get ready for this: whatever you're looking for (Date? Relationship? Fling?), Lavalife.com will hook it up. Amen to online dating.
