lol, some good points. I think there is room for a community where people can get together to see if they can work together or not. None of my friends are really techy so there is no finding them there. no bloody meetups in this area of the uk...

I don't think an on-line thing will really work out. You've got to meet real people, basically. That might mean moving to a more startup-intensive area, if you're serious about it.

I agree; also, the marriage analogy you mentioned before is a good one.

Lots of people meet their future wives on online dating sites... My co-founder met his wife in an online game!

I have made some good friends meeting them online. I gamed for years and joined a clan and have become friends with these people in the real world. I think its doable.
