"I'm Feeling Lucky" (in Love?)

Now, in addition to finding a cell phone, cat chotckes, random celebrity gossip, and up-to-the-minute tooth whitening products online, I can Google for a new boyfriend. No, silly — not some useless blind stalking of Boston celebrity chef Ken Oringer (my latest "foodie" crush) — Google Romance!

Apparently, the beta site will help my lovelorn state because:
"When you think about it, love is just another search problem. And we’ve thought about it. A lot. Google Romance™ is our solution.

Google Romance is a place where you can post all types of romantic information and, using our Soulmate Search™, get back search results that could, in theory, include the love of your life. Then we'll send you both on a Contextual DateTM, which we'll pay for while delivering to you relevant ads that we and our advertising partners think will help produce the dating results you're looking for.

Swoon through technology...perhaps this will succeed for me in the way that eHarmony lamely failed? In particular, I loved the Google Romance Tour.

(Of course, the whole thing was just an April Fool's joke. Oh well, back to the prototype for my own personal speed dating service: Dumpster Dive Dating.)

I highly recommend wasting a little time down "memory lane" with Google's old April Fools pranks.

Click through until you find my personal favorites: the "pigeon cluster" or the FAQs for the MentalPlex.

my dearest blogorelli, it will come. It sucks waiting though, I know that from tough experience. Remember, generic is easy, unique takes more time.
