Love at First Type

There’s no love at first sight for computer geeks. It use to be that a man looked for a woman with a particular set of skills, that was generally expected for all women to have, and a woman looked for a reliable man who would work hard to earn money to raise a family. Even with these unfair gender standards, people had a hard time finding the right person. Now lets ask ourselves, how hard is it to find a girl who can write code in Linux? Because that’s an example of a set of skills I’d be interested in, and that represents probably ten girls in California, none of which I would meet on the street. Online dating is an inevitability for the nerd community. And from my observations a potentially successful one. Congrats Brian & Leah! Love at first type.

    I wanted a cute, nerdy smart guy that knew how to use a computer. Where else but the internet could I find someone like that easily?
