Free General Dating SItes

Free eHarmony Compatibility Profile
Find out what makes you tick and how you are perceived by members of the opposite sex. Instead of tossing out the masses as a potential match for you, eHarmony has a complex algorithm that searches over 29 personality indicators. Once you belong to eHarmony, it'll be obvious how different it is from Match.com. It seems to attract a different breed of daters and eliminates the serial dating process by offering a guided dating process where you exchange preset questions, must have's and can't stands, followed by specific questions, and eventually open communication. All eHarmony memberships include a 7-day risk free trial... if you are unsatisfied with the process or your matches, cancel!

Virtual Kiss
You got the date, now what do you do? This site has been around since 1998. I used to love visiting Virtual Kiss when I was 15 or so. You can find everything from kissing tutorials and advice to love quizzes and interactive games.

HotorNot.com
Mostly used by Californians (read: vain people), this would make for an entertaining break at work for a good hard laugh. People list their photos on this site for other people to rate between 1-10 and they list short little profiles. Some people are on the system to meet people, and others are on hotornot.com purely for a little confidence boosting. If you click on meet people, you can flip through mini photo profiles of people in your area or with your interests... if you click, "I want to meet this person" you will end up in a line up of people that want to meet them by email. If they click on you and want to meet you too, the communication via the hotornot messaging center can begin. The service is totally free and very addicting.

If nothing else, it's a great place for long lost friends to find YOU. Offer available worldwide.

MySpace.com
If this site needs a description, we've got problems. The nice thing now is, you can set your profile to private and only people who you accept as your friends can view it. And, there are starting to be more parental controls. This site is not recommended for kids.

Tribe.net
This is where the hippies, fire dancers, alternative medicine fans, and organic people congregate. ;-) It is a great social network if you are earthy and want to meet people with similar interests.

SocialGrid.com
This site has only been around since May of 2006, and at the time of writing has 40,000 subscribers. Even though their subscriber base is still small, the network is free to use, and it is always free to join and contact other members for social or dating purposes. Looks like it is supported by google ads, and has a lot of search features to wade through the profiles.
