LikeBright Lets You Play Matchmaker With Your Friends Online

AUSTIN — Meeting new people to date is tough. If you’re over the bar scene and not quite comfortable with online dating sites, then your options are pretty limited

2013 SXSW Accelerator Finalist LikeBright understands those challenges, and is offering a new way for people to meet potential dates: through online introductions from their friends.

“Thousands of women have told me they don’t trust strangers on dating sites,” Nick Soman, founder and CEO of LikeBright told Mashable. "Seventy-eight percent of women believe the best way to meet romantic partners is through their friends. We're building LikeBright to make that easier than ever.”
