Wow! This is a cool idea!

Some of the art could use some changes, but the core idea looks like fun! Perhaps you could also add something along the lines of principle components analysis so that you don't only use random groups from your area - you want to have a netflix kind of thing going on mixed with some truly random ones.

Good luck guys!

So we match people based on demographics (age, ethnicity, children?, etc.). We also match based on the Media you include in your First Impression. After you have been through a MingleWeek, we have data about who you rated highly and so we can compose groups based on common affinity.

Ah I suspected you guys were using a more complex algorithm than advertised on the site ^_^. Good luck!
