> Don't put so much stock in an online dating algorithm.

I wouldn't put so much stock in someone like eHarmony, but OkCupid--sure! Those guys use math!

disclaimer: I work for OkCupid Labs.

The fact that you use math doesn't prove anything, especially in an area as complicated as human relationship.

eHarmony uses math!

OKCupid uses reader-generated surveys.

I would say eHarmony relies on pyschology; okCupid on sociology or anthropology.

Was somewhat disappointed when okCupid was acquired by match.com.
