PoF itself does have a certain quirky imperfect charm about it and it flies in the face of the conventional logic du jour. I've always been a fan of the site from a purely business perspective because it has always done exactly what it claimed to do. Sure it's "flawed" and sure it could be "improved", but what incentive does a guy who has $10,000,000 a year coming in have to touch it? I suspect the figure's a bit exaggerated, but the site itself still has a ton of members and more than enough to support a guy in an apartment.

There's something inherently appealing about that kind of openness, and the learnings that accompany it. Got ya in my reader now Brian! People love stats … know I do.

People like Marcus and Shoemoney attract a lot of readers because they do let it all hang out. I having been reading his blog from the beginning.
