Built on a LAMP stack. Anyone think there'll be scaling problems? http://www.TalkAboutADate.com

Help me understand. Is this basically twitter + filtering based on profiles?
It's based on twitter's functionality, but, we just launched, so it'll develop from there. There is no filtering yet. Right now we're providing a place for 'datees' to talk to each other. You just don't get that on other dating sites.
Because other sites recognizes that communication is two things: asymmetric between guys/gals and a premium feature, so they charge for it.
Yep. They sure do.
Insert obligatory pun about the service going down here
How the heck did you do a -1 point? :)
I can see how to do it via a custom-crafted URL, but not in the interface...
