That was me, heh. I responded earlier to this thread as well!

Actually, I did get hired thanks to the Nov 2011 HN thread - one post in particular caught my eye and while I initially just asked for more details, I ended up starting my new position there in December.
Obligatory segue: incidentally, OkCupid Labs (San Francisco, CA) is still growing and looking to hire in a few areas, including design (visual, UX, and/or UI welcome), front-end dev, and senior software engineering. I don't know much about the last one, but for more info on the first two, you can ping me via chang at okcupidlabs. Or the jobs page works too: http://jobs.okcupidlabs.com/.

Looks like that's a day old; Groupon's already priced it at $20 a share (http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2011/11/03/groupon-prices-i-p-o-...).

Exactly; it's not so much about building a "better" product so much as being able to find a key differentiator (though to be fair, overall quality WOULD be a strong one).
