Summary: This book sucks
Comment: I've been dating online for about seven months or so (collectively), and after reading this book with that much experience under my belt, I can say that there are FAR better books out there on this subject.
The authors talk at length through the entire book about how they started getting all these responses from women, but I know that cannot possibly be true because women almost NEVER initiate contact in online dating unless they're undesireable and desperate. That doesn't come from just my experience, it comes from several people I've talked to and other books I've read. Men almost always initiate contact with women, not the other way around. Sorry but if these guys were getting three or four new messages a week, they must have been living in NY or LA and all the responses were probably from very unattractive women. It's a fact..... attractive women-and I don't mean supermodels, I mean just average, moderately attractive women-are way too busy with the responses they get from guys to initiate contact with other guys too.
The authors also have this chapter on "the women of online dating" which stereotypes the different women they say you'll encounter online, but it's really just a stereotype of women you'd meet anywhere..... which means it's just another stereotype of women. Truth is, some women you meet online will be one of these types, some will be combinations of two or more of these types, and some will be none of the above and not fall into ANY category or stereotype......which makes this chapter pretty worthless.
The rest of the book is bunk. Basic, useless information, pointers and tips that I know for a fact from personal experience are incorrect and misleading, and a generally misogynistic attitude toward women.
Instead of this piece o' hud, get "I Can't Believe I'm Buying This Book" by Evan Marc Katz or "Online Dating for Dummies." Both of these books are not only better, but useful for both men and women. And when you have a book that gives pointers to both sexes, you learn a lot more about what the other sex is after.

Summary: Great Advice for Guys
Comment: These guys make a great case for finding Miss Right or Miss Right Now on the Internet. There's lots of common-sense advice that literally saved me hundreds of hours in wasted time and thousands of dollars in wasted dating money. The "Women of Internet Dating" section had some very funny stereotypes and I even learned something from their astrology section. Following their advice helped me find my future wife in less than 30 days! This little book is worth it's weight in gold.

Summary: Loved this book! A clean, fast useful read.
Comment: I wish someone had written this book years ago, it would have saved me so much time and frustration! I think it presents a very fair and balanced look atdating today.
I especially like the fact that this guy found the love of his life online and it's not just a "How-To-Pick-Up Girls" manual.
If you're a guy looking for a good place to start that can save you months of trial and error GET THIS BOOK!
