Do They Have a User for You...
Having trouble making friends on MySpace? Another social-networking Web site is looking to set you up with some friends you might like. Mindkin was designed by students at Carnegie Mellon University as an online matchmaker, to help users find friends they may be compatible with. The university's student newspaper, The Tartan, says people are getting fed up with Facebook, MySpace, and other sites on which users must choose their own connections, often ending up with online "friends" whom they hardly even know. Mindkin, on the other hand, matches people according to their thoughts and interests, which people rate on their personal pages. Those people found the most compatible for a given user are automatically made his or her friends. --Dan Carnevale
