Dinner with Markus Frind, the CEO of Plentyoffish.com, and the first three
employees of Plentyoffish, Priscilla, Shannon and Kate, at Gothams in
Vancouver. Its the end of Markus first week in his fantastic new 26th floor
offices in downtown Vancouver. Cause for celebration, as POF enters a new

Where else can it grow? Well, at $10 million a year, with Match.com at $300+
million, it has plenty of room for growth.
