But most profiles are like the guy wearing the same outfit as everyone else, standing alone in the corner, murmuring monosyllabic answers." Show, don't tell. "Don't tell me you're athletic — tell me about the marathon you just ran," said Eric Resnick of ProfileHelper"Don't say you like to travel — talk about your trip to the Great Wall of China."

Mark Brooks: Singles need help. Dating sites need to help them with guidance. Check out Lookbetteronline.com, and Profilehelper.com and e-cyrano.com. All great services headed by great people.
