Kevin Rose Invests in Dating Game Site I'm In Like With You

iminlikewithyou.png
Digg reveals that its founder Kevin Rose has invested in the dating game site I'm In Like With You. In short, users search each others profiles until they come across their heart's desire. They can then bid on getting a date with the person, but of course they are bidding against others. They can then prove how much they want that date by playing games to accumulate more points.

IILWY was founded by two NYC-based 20-somethings, Charles Forman and Dan Albritton, who raised some other funding from Y-Combinator. Does it mean anything that Kevin Rose has invested as apposed to any other investor? We'd have to say yes. Rose has the ability to draw attention to the site in a way that few other investors can do.
