ntl online dating
So ntl have launched a new dating website in the last couple of days in partnership with DatingDirect...
http://www.cableforum.co.uk/article/...dating-service
What does everyone think? Money well spent, or would your money be better invested in keeping network capacity in line with subscriber demand? Or perhaps, dare I say it, more traffic shaping equipment in readiness to stick that clause back in

Re: ntl online dating
Oh god, i can see it now... "Come and join the NTL dating thing, your pictures are down, your profile text is missing and the only thing listed is your age" of course things will obviously clear up with promised upgrades etc...
Since when has a cablo co. ever done well with this kind of thing though? Doesn't seem right.

Re: ntl online dating
Seems a very odd thing to branch out into.

Re: ntl online dating
Money well spent? Don't you think it would be DatingDirect.com giving money to ntl?

Exactly. I'm sure any money and time taken up with this project was at Datingdirects expense, not ntls...
Still, any chance to **** and moan about ntl's a good'un.

Re: ntl online dating
Has anyone tried the site?
It's swinging London!
You can have a different babe/bloke (take your pick) every night with minimal effort... there is plenty on offer...almost everyone is divorced and ready to play...

Re: ntl online dating
NTL would of been better off spending their money on things like more and better interactive content, digital teletext and as Frank said "keeping network capacity in line with subscriber demand"!!!

So i take it its a "dig at NTL because we can type of post is it"
This will be making money for NTL not losing money. But that does not make good news does it. Stick that in your anti NTL pipe and smoke it .
