FINANCIAL POST – Feb 14 – A new dating site called Hitch.me turns your LinkedIn network into a search for a soulmate. Although Hitch.me only launched about a month ago, some 2K people have already signed on. And so far, it’s somewhat of a ladies market with more men using it. The site was built by Toronto resident Naveed Nadir. “This idea came to me last year after LinkedIn launched their API." Hitch.me does not search through your whole LinkedIn network looking for suitable mates, only those who join Hitch.me. But it does allow you to see the full profiles of people it matches to you.
