I met my wife 9 years ago after she answered my ad on Love@AOL. I've been happily married ever since!

I think dating no matter where it starts from is a 50/50 thing. Either it will work or it won't. I do not believe that how you meet or where is going to make a difference on how the relationship will go. The only difference between meeting someone online or on on the street is that it's easier, in a lot of ways. For those who work a lot and/or are very busy, getting online is so much easier than trying to find the time to get out in the world. And, you can really get to know someone right off, obviously there is a lot you will not be able to figure out until you meet. But when you are nervous about talking to someone face to face you may not be able to be yourself around them. But online, hey there is nothing to loose. You can be yourself and then feel a little more comfortable when you do meet them. But then there is always the fear that they won't like you physically, when you meet someone out in the real world if they ask you out then you know they like the way you look. Consider this though, no matter how attractive a person is when you meet them, when you get to know them if they are not what you are looking for their attractiveness doesn't seem to matter anymore. Same goes for if you really like someones personality and you get a chance to discover that before you judge them by their looks, that can be a great thing as well.
Let me ask you this. Do you know someone you meet on the street for the first time any better than you know someone that you meet online? I'd say no! The person for you is out there, and I think that there are a million people out there that will never find the one person who they were meant to be with, this world is offly big, it can be easy to walk right past the love of your life. So I think the internet just gives you a few more opportunities to find that person.
OK so maybe I over analyze too much lol! But I've met some GREAT friends online. So I think these sites work just as well as the local bar.

YEs they work and there are many happy couples. THey can work for you if that is what you wish to do. However in doig so, dont rush to tell all about your self and use caution and realy get to know the person. Ask a lot of questions and watch the answers . Make sure you are satisfied. Some have been hurt using these sites because they lacked good judgement.
try it slow, and see if it's for you.

No I don't think they work at all. You spend lots of money and end up with a few really interesting pen friends who you don't fancy. Speedating not great either. The sad truth is that the boys/ girls worth having just don't need to bother with this stuff.
