Engage's Second Generation Dating Service

VENTURE BEAT -- Apr 7 -- Engage (262,000 unique visitors in March) is the first "second generation social dating site", said Trish McDermott, the company's vice president. It provides a place for mingling, mixing, matching and flirting. To be a matchmaker on the site, users cast their votes to suggest couples, or use the Play Matchmaker feature, which lets them introduce their friends to dating candidates. Users earn social points by being active. Engage took over $5m from Advanced Technology Ventures, the Founders Fund, and Revolution Ventures, with its second round closing two years ago.
