Matching?

Google dating [a klog apart]

So let me bring this back to a few of my themes:

1. Weblogs are handy for branding. For work. And for life. Casting your self upon the marketplace of ideas.
2. A blog’s links show, build, and exercise social networks. Google likes this.
3. Matching engines scoring compatibility of every combination in an n-n space. Zippy, where Oracle grinds to a halt. ELISE, iXmatch, NCorp, Triplehop, Burning Glass. But they need at least partially structured data.
4. RSS 2.0 supports adding structure.
   • Personal profiles: I want [love, romance, security, walks in the park], I offer [conversation, laughs, cuddling].
   • Professional profiles: I want [work near me, comp plan X, benefits Y], I offer [ability A, experience B, skills C, reputation D]. Traditionally packaged as résumés, CVs, and career profiles.

So if you want love and money, build tools that add structure to blogs, RSS, and RSS readers.
