Lovest.at is about social discovery, helping find people just like you

What Company Is Offering:
Lovest.at is about social discovery, helping find people just like you.

Lovest.at draws on all your existing social site profiles so there is no need to enter much additional information.

Lovest.at combines many of these media discovery sites - like del.icio.us and Last.fm - and turns their data into a people discovery service, for want of a better phrase. With the current site we have put the bare bones of such a service in place. During the course of 2008, Lovest.at will become much more sophisticated and will allow you, as the user, to find people you have huge amounts in common with.
Lovest.at is a privately held organisation based in London, England. We created Lovest.at as the internet has many great services which allow you to find new music and new videos; new websites and new photos. What it hasn't been great for is finding a way to add all this together and offer a way to meet new people.
