Online dating is certainly a lot less superficial than picking people up in a bar.

I've read somewhere that a significant fraction of modern relationships (a third?) start online. And they tend to be relatively stable. There's clearly something to be said for discussion interests before looking at the picture.

"Start online" does not mean "on online dating". My current relationship started "online" - we met on last.fm and noticed that we went to the same concerts. From there on it's basically a regular dating story.
