OKCupid to Venture Into Housemate Matching
Ten years ago, when couples said they'd met online, they meant they'd met on Craigslist. Now, they most likely mean they met on OKCupid, which had 7 million active users as of April 2011.

That may be about to change: OKCupid is beta-testing a housemate-matching service on an undisclosed domain, according to co-founder and CEO Sam Yagan.
