Whilst the traffic numbers might not seem to compare, the CTR is much higher, and may make PoF a $1B two person company (Markus just hired an assistant)

That should be a pretty fair indication we're in a bubble...
Possibly... although I think dating will be around for a while.
The big thing about PoF is they make a profit - a god one, though I am sure it could be moneized better.
I like stories like this. I'd bet there are a lot more successful 1-person run sites out there than we know of.
Good stuff, I have been working on an idea for a new social media site that is focus on the business communiity and its nothing like LinkedIn. This is a inspiring story.
While I do kinda hope he is making that kind of money I am not sure it is entirely true. ShoeMoney made a post about PoF last year http://www.shoemoney.com/2006/05/08/plentyoffish-marketing-101-when-all-else-fails-just-lie/
