uRadiate To Launch eHarmony Competitor

NYC-based yRadiate (aka uRadiate.com) is getting set to launch a new dating site for users to find a date
or set someone up with a date.

The site will center on getting users to create and answer "raves": short surveys that, depending on how a users answers will be used to determine who to match that user with.

Here is an example of a uRadiate Rave:
Sample Rave: “God Complex” (Tags: Science, Rock Music, Family)

When Einstein said, "God is clever, but not dishonest," he really meant:

1. The Unified Field Theory would inevitably be proved
2. Science and religion are not mutually exclusive
3. Just because there are some illogical kinks in quantum mechanics, it doesn't mean that the universe can't work nicely and neatly at its most basic, sub-atomic level
4. The essential lesson of the Bible is, in fact, the scientific method: Doubt leads to discovery
5. It's going to take a long time to figure out how the universe works

The Worst Song About God is:

1. “One of Us”
2. “With God on Our Side”
3. “God Save the Queen”
4. “Spirit in the Sky”
5. “God”

I use the expression “Oh, my God!”
1. Frequently; I’m easily wowed.
2. Never in public, and always in the e-shorthand. OMG!
3. Not once in my life; it’s blasphemy.
4. Sometimes, but I prefer: “Get (the f***) out of here!”
5. Mostly under my breath. I also hate exclamation points

uRadiate is led by Fred Wasch who previously founded CallStreet which sells corrected transcripts of earnings conference calls through an events calendar application. He sold that company to FactSet Research. uRadiate calls itself "well funded" and is staffing up but does not offer any more details.
