    I love the jeevansathi.com ads appearing right here at the bottom. So appropriate.

    Superb, as usual, and quite a scary prospect too! Here’s another take (mine, of course) on the same topic.. http://oldlamps4new.blogspot.com/2007/12/aaaaaaaaaaargh-contd_08.html

    gauri // December 21st, 2009 at 11:32 am

    LOL. Careful with that title – your status might just be magically updated to “FYF is feeling Lucky. That ruins his almost 90% chance of hitting it off with Happy.”

    Hilarious. Even more hilarious: “I don’t believe Google goes through your personal information to make profit, and even if it does – Well, you agreed to it in the Terms & Conditions. In short, please don’t sue me.” <—- Hahaha.

    Saurabh // December 21st, 2009 at 12:15 pm

    Hahaha Amazing !, this is the first thing i thought when i saw http://www.google.com/romance/index.html sent by someone just to know it was an April Fool’s joke and yet a lot of bloggers had analysed the concept of “Contextual Dating” .

    @sreeyesh, @khushnush, @sam, @rockus, @bijoy, @rahul, @saurabh N, @himanshu, @rampee, @arjun, @mihir, @abhinav: Thank you, thank you :D

    @charu Consul: Thank you for the non-stop support. Every other day :)

    @sajith, @dunkdaft: Have I mentioned how totally awesome Jeevansathi is? I mean, if you’re not married yet and want to… I’d totally recommend Jeevansathi. Why go anywhere else?

    @gauri: Gotta protect my Interests. And can’t trust some “news sources”. Check out Fakingnews.com and how a bunch of news papers/sites took his Axe Deo story and ran it as a true story.

    @crucifire: Yup. Someone sent that link. It was a dating site. :)

    @nishu: Google knows your marriage potential and marked you higher on the GroomRank scale.

    Rafiq Raja // December 21st, 2009 at 2:44 pm

    Another FlyYouFools Original. Laughed my guts out. Hope google doesn’t take inspiration out of this concept in real, Saad :)

    Saad Akhtar (Author) // December 21st, 2009 at 2:53 pm

    @rafiq: Well they DID take XKCD’s suggestion and implemented that in Youtube comments. So, lets hope so :)

    Pure Awesomeness!
    Absolutely liked (1) What you liked for.. (2) Comic disclaimer (3) jeevansathi ad by google to complement the comic. :-D

  35. 35
    @nks // December 21st, 2009 at 5:30 pm

    AD // December 21st, 2009 at 7:47 pm

    A suggestion: Add forward/next buttons on your site; so that i can browse all comics from the 1st to last. ;)

    btw Nice work!

    Rohit // December 21st, 2009 at 7:54 pm

    Good one saad

    Saad Akhtar (Author) // December 21st, 2009 at 8:19 pm

    @ad I’m struggling with a proper navigation plugin. There are some Prev/Next buttons on the home page. But they’re not showing up on individual post pages. I’ll try fixing it. Although the best way to check out all the previous comics is through the archives page.

    Kaushik // December 21st, 2009 at 8:34 pm

    “What an idea, Sergei” = AWESOME

  41. 43
    Sujata // December 21st, 2009 at 10:03 pm

    That’s one hell of a figment of imagination and a prospective one at that..

    Way to go Saad!! :D

  42. 44
    doctoratlarge // December 21st, 2009 at 11:21 pm

    Yes this is certainly a marketable idea.
    I have admired many of your comics in the past too. Would you mind it if I added you to my blogroll?

  43. 45
    Ankur Jain // December 21st, 2009 at 11:55 pm

    Awesome man!!!

  44. 46
    Deepti // December 22nd, 2009 at 12:41 am

    Absolutely Awesome.

    I was getting a bit restless there.. Now I see though why its taken a while to make it. :)

    After the hilarious take on Google reading Inbox, Outbox, Friends & deeds and the search bar, Orkut has “Security Tip: Protect your account..” Hehe. The Disclaimer< Buwahahaha!

    Cool work!! ;)

    "And SEO takes on a totally different meaning…." – Umm.. What is That supposed to mean?

    abida nahid // December 22nd, 2009 at 1:17 pm

    The search for animal positions was quite an insight…all in gud taste….neat!

    Gyanban // December 22nd, 2009 at 6:32 pm

    Google Divorce Search could the advance option.

    Good one. :-)

    Saad Akhtar (Author) // December 22nd, 2009 at 6:37 pm

    @doctoratlarge: By all means, good Sir! Add me to your blogroll. Embed a comic while you’re at it.

    @deepti: Search Engine Optimization. Basically self-proclaimed snake oil salesmen go around peddling their skills to companies that wish to see their products on the top of Google results page.

    @gyanban: Ha! :D That sounds like something Microsoft might develop. Say Bing 3 times, and you’re divorced

    Shantanu // December 23rd, 2009 at 2:50 am

    Imagine a bride-to-be finding out that her groom-to-be Favorited the ‘two girls and a cup’ video on Youtube and calling off the marriage on ‘ethical’ grounds..

    The Cooldude09 profile killed it.! And the fortune on the orkut profile is a hidden message I guess.. :P The Jeevansaathi ad is the nail in the coffin!

    Great stuff.. worth the wait..

  52. 55
    Paavani // December 23rd, 2009 at 3:23 pm
