[...] Addmired Addmired provides the AddHer and AddHim social network widgets, both of which display two user profile pictures at a time and ask users to answer certain questions about them, such as “Who’s more popular?” The founders argue that their widgets are more appealing to social network owners than other widgets, because they help drive traffic within the social networks, not siphon traffic out of them. They look to establish service level agreements with some of the smaller social networks. We covered the service in February here. [...]

I hope you’re in the general pool of users, so that your picture occasionally appears on people’s myspace pages when they’re expecting a cute girl. I’d get a kick out of that.

The widget doesn’t seem to work. It’s stuck in a continual load cycle. Using IE6 (work required).

I thought YC was supposed to be original?

Voting on the Compare People app is painfully slow compared to this and also the Compare People app is stuck on Facebook! Plus, I think you guys are missing the fact that this widget can drive traffic to the link that the user inputs. I think this is a great idea wrapped up in a slick looking widget.

Kudos.

@Titan – Yes.

It doesn’t always crash my PC (and someone else’s MAc using Safari) but if you reload it a few times it definitely FKs up your session.

I actually thought you ‘re better looking then most of the dogs in there… does that make me gay?

but, It would be interesting to know who clicked the picture? You really seem to fit there with those hot babes

Now exactly how is this going to make any money? Is there any competitive advantage to another widget? I’m going to be sick if this gets VC funding.

This is considered new? There’s already a top-10 facebook app with over 10 Million users that does this – it’s called Compare People. I thought YC was supposed to be original?

yea sorry about this mike but you didnt get any votes from me

By: kyle

kyle — Thu, 14 Feb 2008 08:30:21 +0000

but if you had picked the picture, it would have been that one anyways, right?

it’s a pretty slick widget. definitely could be a hit, if the compare friends facebook app didn’t already do exactly the same thing.
