I found it more engaging as a narrative, and it effectively conveyed Alan's extremely charming writing voice. Not that e's version was bad--it certainly wasn't. But it felt to me like it had lost some essential Alan-ness. While I think the short-answer personal details were much improved, I have to say, I liked Alan’s “About me & my date” answer better.

I have sent your link to some of my friends (that happened to be gay) and most of there response was "this is not for me, this site is build to help breeders.=/" so most don't even bather to give it a second look. =P I am suggesting to all my gay single friends to take a second look at the site now that you have don this Personal Ad Makeover. Before I saw this Makeover I was going to suggest a piece to help the gay on-line dating community, to review some gay dating sites and give advice about gay geek love.=P Is interesting that you chose this profile E.

Always test your headline to see where it will cut off in the search results. Sometimes it's in an awkward place, or worse yet, a place that implies a different ending than you'd EVER write. :) Alan brings up a very good point about headlines (which I WISH match.com would fix!!).
