I went to an event by Amazon on their Amazon Web Services in Santa Monica today. eHarmony and MyShape seem they could use it to distribute load around matching especially during media events. The focus was S3 - storage service, EC2 - their compute cloud, their queuing system, and their flexible payment system.

Because I was the Acting CTO for eHarmony at it's start, I quite often get introduced to people who have an idea for a startup company that is based on some kind of matching algorithm. They describe the company as the eHarmony of careers, clothes, jobs, college, tutoring services, doctors, service companies, investments, etc.

eHarmony for me fell into that camp. We end up using WordPress a lot as the marketing front-end of our web sites. In this talk, we spent most of our time on Technical Advisors: Every Web/Mobile Startup Must Have One and how they should be helping you: Specify the right things to be built. We needed the matching algorithm.

My own history, is I was here when Overture was doing great things, and Citysearch, Earthlink, and eHarmony were all here. I think our advantage then was the first wave of web-based innovation was more in the area of hard sciences, which is the domain of JPL and Caltech. Andy Wilson: Great question. We were at ground zero.

You come to our site, take a match quiz--a lot like eHarmony--to find the right trainer. A plan alone is not all that valuable if you won't follow them, so what we give are also the tools--via iPhone, the web, SMS, email, Android, Blackberry--to log you actually did do. The plans are really usable, and we don't just stop with a plan.
