LinkedIn Has Accidentally Become a Dating Site

I went on a date with a LinkedIn connection, here's what I learned about lead generation:

I think it's also because the regular dating sites are setup to not find you a match, so by bypassing them (at least in a way), you have a better chance of actually going on a date.

To keep in mind is that this article talks about people who have had success using LinkedIn, I'm sure there are people who've tried it without success.

I mean why not? There was a math guy who wanted wider viewership for his calculus lectures than he was getting on youtube, so he started uploading them to a porn site and built up a steady audience and income there.

Added: did web search, maybe this is the guy, not sure.

Oh here's another one:

That one mentions that Pornhub pays around 2.5x as much per view as Youtube pays, so it's an obvious win.

You can get a date anywhere. I used to get dates cold messaging women on Facebook I had no connection to. Creepy? I'm sure some thought so, but many did not.

Every site is a dating site, if you try hard enough.

Accidentally?
