Cnet buys Consumating, yes Match should be worried

Last year in July I wrote an article titled Match.com Vs. Consumating.com that talked about a small austin based startup and how its approach to online dating was much more of an emergent, bottom up, blog like system. Standing of course in stark contrast to Match.com which controls user generated content with an iron fist. Well Cnet has bought consumating.com and I for one couldn’t be happier. I’m not claiming to be an indie guy that rocks, and I don’t where glasses, but it’s a dating service much more aligned with my personality.
