Using feeds for match making

Feedbuddy: RSS Matchmaking from Read/WriteWeb by Josh Catone

Feedbuddy is a social network that was bound to happen: one built around RSS feeds. It's actually not a bad idea. As the site says, "subscribing to and reading special RSS-feeds characterizes you and your very special interests." Or in other words, the type of feeds you read has a lot to do with what interests you, so it follows that anyone with a number of feeds in common will likely be someone you share interests with.

Feedbuddy has a good idea; matching people's interests based on the feeds they read makes a lot of sense.
