Go ‘head and run yo mouf — on our Community Forums
By Juliet O
While most of you Zooskers probably couldn’t run a marathon with your legs, you sure know how to run them with your mouths. Your chat-alicious, loose-lipped, loud-mouthy, over-sharing, word-spitting ways have greatly endeared you to our hearts, and we applaud the fact that many of you have problems shutting the front door.
Our hyperactive community forums are one of the Zoosk features we’re most proud of, because the many voices on the forums come from YOU, the community, and the community is the life of Zoosk. It appears that the average Zoosker on our forums is chattier than an ADHD kid who just washed down all his Halloween candy with a 6-pack of Red Bull. You will get that talk on, and we find that to be a beautiful thing. On the forums, topics range from discerningly erudite (like intelligent reflections on the meaning of love) to unabashedly low-brow (like talking in detail about the female anatomy), and all these topics come together to form a mish mash, hodge podge, all-encompassing community board that accurately details all the multiplicity of things going through the collective mind of the Zoosk community, something we admire, foster, and want to actively engage. Today, we want to shine a spotlight on the community, because the community the shining light of Zoosk… and now we’re getting sentimental. Make it stop.

Another Zoosk romance that brings tears to our eyes
By Juliet O
Zooskers are catching the love bug left and right, and we’ve been hearing success stories from our users that are so romantic, they put Jane Austin to shame. A big thank you to all those who submitted stories in July about finding that special someone on Zoosk. Last month, we came across a story that particularly struck a chord with our more blatantly sensitive side, which was submitted from Zooskers ThomasW71 and 777blondie from Washington state. Here’s our featured story. (more…)

Love Is In the Air…Zoosker Success Stories!
We were thrilled to read through the stories you sent us for our new monthly blog feature…featuring your real-life success stories made possible through Zoosk.
We promised you we would select one of your stories every month to feature right here on our blog. So here it is. Kelly and Andy’s story was pretty special, in our opinion, and a congratulations is in order for their upcoming wedding!
I met Andy last January via the Zoosk application on Facebook. We arranged to meet up on February 9, 2008. Neither of us viewed it as a “date” since neither of us were particularly attracted to the other’s profile (though neither of us would admit it). However, within 15 minutes of our first meeting, it was clear that it was very much a date. Andy proposed several months later and we’re getting married in August 2009. Thank you Zoosk – you definitely worked for us!” – Kelly
Congratulations, Andy and Kelly!
Do you have a Zoosk story to share? If you’ve met someone special – a fun date, a significant other, or a life partner – through Zoosk, drop us a line at success@zoosk.com. We’ll select one story from those submitted in April to feature right here. And if your story is selected, we’ll send you a $100 VISA or Amazon.com gift card (your choice).
Happy Zoosking!
