OkTrends. (Data from the OKCupid online dating site)
I’m just browsing through my old stuff on another site and came across this site – it has some interesting data on the way people project themselves online. It’s different from Facebook in that it’s a dating site. As pointed out in one of the posts:
Anyhow, in many online situations, self-misrepresentation is totally harmless. Like, who cares if your Halo 3 avatar is taller than you are in real life? Or if flickr thinks you’re single when you’re really married? But in online dating, where the whole goal is to eventually meet other people in person, creating a false impression is a whole different deal.
