ok, genuine feedback from my PoV:
the 6 things - you've only got 5! and they're all quite general - pick a book, or an album. tells people more about you.

I can't think of anything else! And there's the section above for saying favourite books/music/movies and so on, so I don't want to repeat myself. I've kept it at 5

thing is tho, i'm not sure you would be repeating yourself. you'd be picking the most important thing from the list you've stated.

i would say it's fine to be generic with one of them (books, i'm a hoarder, for example, i like). but just saying you can't live without books and music is really quite broad. do you not have a favourite favourite album? a favourite type of food? a favourite person/experience/place?

Not really, it changes with whatever I'm reading/listening to/watching at the time *shrug*

so do what i do with profiles and everything and change the list as your mind changes.

Then just put what you're reading/watching/listening to and enjoying at the time, next to a few firm favourites.

HEY!

its me who your meant to be giving advice

not her!

haha, that was you! You sounded terrified.

Bit off-track, and maybe should be a diff thread. I asked out a girl from work. After friending one of my online profiles, she found and read both my blogs. Not that I'm complaining, on the contrary, plus 500 points for initiative. But this isn't the typical way that the getting-to-know-you part plays out. It's interesting, like dating as an open game with perfect information.

Hey Mark, put up that pic of you getting attacked by zombies. You look like you're having fun.

I like that one, too!

me too!

I too vote for Mark getting attacked by Zombies. That will most certainly garner some attention. And from a woman with a sense of humour (or a taste for brains), that will be absolutely priceless.

Also, he will get plenty of attention from zombies.

Exactly.

i vote for the zombie picture too. i have my silly vampire bunny picture up and that gets attention, so it must work!

I've had it up before. It didn't do anything.
