The Dating Service for Independent Minds

The Atlasphere has topped yet another list of niche dating sites. Unlike the ones by Salon.com and the Chicago Tribune, however, this article by the Toronto Star takes a sneering tone:

How’s this for niche: only fans of Ayn Rand need to enter. It’s a truism that the secret to a long-lasting relationship is if couples can find common ground on important issues. Users of Atlasphere .com [sic] already know this, because Rand told them what to believe. The site is built for connecting admirers of The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged.

Of course, anyone who needs to be “told what to believe” ought to enjoy The Fountainhead or Atlas Shrugged about as much as an aneurysm.
