From: utzoo!decvax!duke!harpo!seismo!uwvax!reid Newsgroups: net.singles Title: conducting a survey... Article-I.D.: uwvax.728 Posted: Tue Jan 18 15:21:36 1983 Received: Fri Jan 21 02:13:27 1983 I am writing a program for a 'computer dating service', and I would like to solicit some input from the net.singles community. The basic idea is that I will have people fill out a very detailed description of themselves, and I will provide 'query' forms with the same criteria with which people can search. For each category, nitpicking or not, I will also have a scale to rate its importance to you. I hope that this will enable people to be very specific and picky in areas that matter to them, fetishes and preferences, without having to count all sorts of the other details. The premise is that people are very picky by nature, and that this will allow them to exercise that selection. This could get very long. Please respond by mail for a more detailed description and for an idea of how you might be able to help. Alternatively, you might just suggest some of those "little things" that you notice about people, so that I can represent as many as possible. For example, perhaps you care how much someone tends to talk, or whether they wear zippered boots and black socks with their bermuda shorts, or something. Thanks, thanks, thanks in advance, as they say... Glenn Reid ...harpo!seismo!uwvax!reid
