Six and a half years ago, my phone rings. Patrick is calling from his station near a Marine base in Hawaii. “You said you could make a dating site for gamers right?” I didn’t tell you that this call came in late on a Tuesday night. “Yeah. I’ll need your help, but yes – we can do…
CNET Magazine, summer edition, hit the shelves earlier this week. Ian Sherr’s article, Love Match? surveys several niche dating sites, and LFGdating made the cut. The content describes Jaime, a 40-year-old woman who wants to find a man who is more than ok with her playing World of Warcraft 10 plus hours per week. Sherr writes, “Her previous relationship ended…
Supercon. That’s the name of it. It’s not ironic. It’s spot on. It’s Supercon! This July, LFGdating will have a booth at the Florida Supercon. Last year, over 51,000 people attended South Beach’s finest comicon, and we’re looking to surpass that number this year. We can’t wait to meet all the lovely folks down in…

We’re filming a commercial this Saturday, and we couldn’t be happier.

Ah yes, the grand old question that every gamer wonders, because it would undoubtedly be the best job on the planet: how much does a Twitch streamer really make? Just recently I came across a very intriguing blog post from Daniel Fenner, an Australian gamer who not only answered that question, but did it with…
Is there anything cooler than Twitch? I mean, except for LFG of course? We don’t think so, and neither do the millions of video game streamers that use the service daily to not only broadcast their favorite video games, but to make money from the hundreds to thousands of people that stream them every time they…
Okay okay. We get it. We post a lot of World of Warcraft topics. But the game still is entirely relevant today and we’re watching a company deal with a beast much bigger than it ever imagined it being. With an upcoming patch set to download before the WoD expansion, players will be able to…
Gamer Girls Radio is not your average podcast. And no, I’m not referring to the fact that the hosts are actually hostesses. GGR is a great podcast because it has balance; it’s not two people droning on and on about the same topic like every other show. In the 30 or so odd minutes of…
