Smartdate Takes Another ?3.5 Million So You Can Stop Poking and Start Dating

Smartdate announced a ?2 million round in February of this year so that you could stop poking and start actually dating the friends of your Facebook friends. But now the company is kicking it up a notch and announcing that it's raised an additional ?3.5 million with the fonders of PriceMinster, Pierre Kosciuscko-Morizet and Pierre Krings. Oh, and just in case you forgot, French Ebay competitor PriceMinister went to Rakuten in June for ?200 million (about $250 million) so maybe that's why the founders have a bit of cash to spare. As with a number of French dating sites, like the likes of Adoptaguy and Meetic, Smartdate is rapidly developing and already has a 25 person team in place.
