Important!
If you want to play with this, please do fill out this form!
But don't expect your responses to be permanent;
I'm still testing and playing with the system.
Let me know what you think!

Hi there.

I'm David, and this is my little attempt to meet people, find interesting things to do, and generally have a bit of fun. Hopefully I can help you meet the guy or girl of your dreams, or at least admire my CGI scripting skills and give me an interesting job

Because this was designed by an individual and not a committee, it's rather eccentric. That's why it's here, to give you a little relief from the ever-chilly corporate-based Internet. I have nothing against large corporations; in fact, many of them do some truly great things. But to me, that's not what the Internet's really about to me; it's about crazy things, done by individuals for fun. Like this.

This form is designed to let you enter as much or as little as you want about yourself. Generally, you'll get the best response if you fill all of it out, and especially if you include a URL for a creative home page you've made. Although they were designed for my Wonderful Women of the Web, these Guidelines for creating a Wonderful Site are worthwhile reading to anyone who wants to create a home page that moves and excites.

Required Questions

Describe yourself in a single line. This will be the headline of your ad, which will determine whether people will check it out, so be sure to put something really nice and interesting in this space.

What shall we call you?
(Note: This doesn't have to be your real name)

What's your email address?
Note: If you don't want to give you real email address, you can use an anonymous contact service such as anon.penet.fi

Enter a password, so that you can access the service later:

What is your sex?

What's your sexual preference?

How old are you?
(If you don't want us to know, just leave this blank. However, note that people who search by age won't be able to find you at all then).

Now, let's have a URL for your home page, so we can check out your brilliant WWW creations. If you don't have a URL, you can leave this blank. But why not create a page of your own? Sites like Geocities will be more than happy to set you up with a nice free one.

What keywords would you like to enter?
People will be able to type these words to find people matching their requirements

Your Ad

I'd like to make a small request before we get to the actual ad. If you've read personal ads before, you probably know they're all asking for about the same thing: An amazingly good looking person with a Gulfstream IV jet and an unlimited travel allowance to get them out of their rut.
Now, really. We all could use our own Gulfstream IV (it only costs about $ 10,000 an hour to run, friends!), but it pretty much goes without saying that we'd all like to love a rich person who is has more than a passing resemblance to a movie star.
So please, try to make your ad unique. Let's hear something creative, fun and lively. Let's find out how you're different from other people, how you stand out from the pack who want long romantic walks, evenings at the movies and in front of the roaring fire.

Note: If you want to have this entry displayed as HTML, instead of individual lines of text, be sure to put at least one <p> in the text. Click here for the advantages of putting your entry in HTML

My Interview with You
If I were going to talk to you and ask what kind of person you were, I might ask you questions like these.

What type of person are you looking for? What's your ultimate ambition in life?

What do you like to do for fun?
What are your favourite books, movies, actors, actresses, music, etc? Tell us a favourite joke or funny story.

Because I think all those massive forms with huge numbers of tiny text areas you have to scrunch through are pretty tough to deal with, I'm giving you one giant place to answer my questions. Answer as many or as few as you want.
Note: To have this read as HTML, put at least one "<p>" in the text.

Matching Questions The following questions are meant to help us find your perfect match. By answering these questions, you'll let us show your matches in rough order of desirability.

Your matches will be listed in order based on how well you matched the person. If you check "My match must like this", the system will exclude anyone who didn't answer "I need this" or "I want this". If you check "My match must NOT like this", the system will exclude anyone who didn't answer "I don't like it" or "I hate it".

Quick personality check

The Quick Personality check helps you understand your personality and the ways you make decisions. By providing honest answers to the questions below, our system can determine people you're temprementally suited to being with.

In my personal experience, people who take this test discover a great deal about themselves from the results. However, it's quite long - around 100 questions. Because of that, I've developed a short, summary version of it.

This quick personality check will give you an idea of how you relate to other people signed on to this service. It lets you compare yourself with other people, based on a psychological profile.

For details on how this works, and a fuller test you can check out if you have any doubt as to your answers to the questions below, check out the Keirsey Temprement Sorter Warning: If you click on this link, you will be taken to a rather long test that has nothing to do with entering a personal. Once you have some idea of what type you are, be sure to return to this page and continue the process.
