Soflow.com, the not so new kid on the block

Not sure just how many people were users or even aware of the dating site, UDate.com, but it sold for a pretty penny a year or so ago. The two entrepreneurs that started that business have gone on to start a new dating site for professionals.

The duo, Martin Clifford and Mel Morris, will take the helm of www.Soflow.com as chief executive and non-executive chairman, respectively, the London-based start-up said in a statement.

Interestingly enough, I came across SoFlow some time ago, though I didn't really give it much hassle -- mostly because I was too tired and frustrated with anything that looked like it was based on the SNS 1.0 platform. Hopefully I will get up enough energy to look into this one more. No promises though.
