PAID CONTENT - July 27 - Triangulate, a startup trying to build an
online dating business on Facebook, has raised $750,000 from Trinity
Ventures and Playdom Chairman Rick Thompson. Triangulate is the latest
so-called “social dating” site to attract interest from investors;
Zoosk, the most established player in the market, has raised more than
$40M, while SmartDate, raised $2.2 M in March. Triangulate’s Facebook
app, called Wings, uses data from a member’s Facebook profile, as well
as from their accounts on Netflix (NSDQ: NFLX), Twitter and Foursquare,
to automatically generate a basic dating profile for them, which
includes topics they are interested in, where they like to hang out,
and who their friends tend to be. FULL ARTICLE @ PAID CONTENT
