The Idea
Bombarded with an onslaught of uncertain signals and confusing information how can you narrow down the people you can make a connection with? Imagine there is someone out there in the urban jungle just for you. Someone you can make an instant connection with. . Matchme finds someone eerily like you. . Relationship experts know that sharing a similar sense of humour and similar values can be a major factor in a long term relationship. . It can be built in a couple different ways, but I will focus on the easiest. As you watch movies, youTube clips, and tv shows on your computer, matchmaker records what you find humorous, what you find offensive or in poor taste, and what you find entertaining. It then searches its database for people that view the same things in the same way as you do.
I thought of this idea when I was...
At a movie recently I wondered who in the theatre was laughing at the exact things I was laughing at and not laughing when I was not laughing.

This could be combined with some of the other dating ideas in IW
Interesting point, that user profiles found in media player, YouTube... and your PVR... could be combined to help you find a mate or at least someone to date.
But this is a play to be made by... Microsoft, YouTube/Google, TiVo, NetFlix. They're the ones with access to the profile data. At best we could have an app that scours a user's HD and build a profile based on that, but I wouldn't want to count on people trusting us that much... even understanding the privacy implications of us building such a profile.
I think that's why dating sites depend on asking lame questions, there's lots of data sources for building profiles, but usually people don't want profile data from one part of their life (music tastes) applied to other parts of their lives (airport no-fly-lists).

Most big players can't get involved here as they don't want to support competing platforms. My intention is to let people use whatever video format/hardware/website they want to watch videos in.
This is a website where
1. You say what you watched (not where)
2. You upload your enjoyment, preferably in a real-time play by play format. This being done by clicking funny (on a standalone app) when you found something funny, etc.
One way to get revenue out of it is by having a "Featured video" each week and to encourage people to "laugh track it" which is a term I just made up to describe the basic concept of what you are supposed to do. Then you have a link to the video where you can get a referral fee from whoever is selling it (like the itunes affiliate referral deal).
This seems like an addon for E-Harmony.com
i second that
