Wow. There are people who thought that this ad was okay, even great.

I find this appraisal of e-dating inane. There are very few ways to meet people without those same obstacles; people may be one-dimensional online, but they're also one-dimensional in person at first glance. How is seeing someone at a bar more illuminating than seeing him or her online? And yes, some of the things we think matter, don't, but that's also an issue beyond the internet. Those algorithms are actually pretty good.
