Bye, Bye Old Yahoo! Personals

Today is the last day of the old Yahoo! Personals dating site. Back in May Match.com and Yahoo announced that they had partnered and that Match.com would be the exclusive online dating site for Yahoo in North America. Starting May 19th the old Yahoo! Personals dating service would not be accepting any new members. On this date as well, current Yahoo! Personal members had the option of either having their account transferred to the new Match.com on Yahoo! dating site or to continue to use the current Yahoo! Personals site until July 21, 2010.

So for all of you old Yahoo! Personals members (if there are any of you left) today is your last day. If you have any time left on your subscription I would transfer it to Match.com while you still can. If you don't, "you will be issued a prorated refund for the amount of your unused Yahoo! Personals subscription, if any". If you have not found love online yet then transferring your account is the best option. Match.com is a much larger dating service than Yahoo was and there will be a whole pile of new potential matches for you to browse and communicate with.

Also, while Yahoo! Personals will be closed today, members will still have the option to move their old Yahoo! Personals profile information and email matches to Match.com until January 19th, 2011.
