   Hey now! I like getting hit on by strange people! Oh, sure, some of them turn out to be gay lumberjacks who'd like to choke my chicken, but I'll deal with that for the few hot ones who roll my way.

   It seems like the dating sites have not rally changed the way personal ads work. They've just taken the ads onine and made them a bit more convenient.
   
   Now, if you took the idea of LinkedIn, and connected to a dating site, so that the ony way a introduction happens is by a referral from a trusted source, you'd have something different that just might be a lot more effective.
   
   Or not. I'm married, and have been since well before Netscape's IPO, so I have no practical experience to draw on here :)

   Simple Questions

   How long until people make it their standard protocol to put people through extensive questioning? I've read books on police interviewing techniques, so when I meet people online, I go through the procedure. I ask them questions about their background, look for inconsistencies. Invariably, the perverts have no patience and quickly give themselves away. If the subject passes the screening, I then talk to them on the phone, get to know them over weeks and months, before I ever agree to meet up with them. With this method, I've never had a problem with the people I meet.
