Online Monkey Personals...

Greetings and welcome back to The Un-Zone, the only known site on the Internet devoted to all things related to Un. Basically, for those a little too dense to figure this one out, this site is all about things related to Un. All the things that I find interesting and are floating around in my head.

You've all heard about the online personal site. Places like Match, E-Harmony, and Family Watchdog. The last site, as you may have guessed, was meant to be a joke. You know, something that violates a set pattern. Forget it. I found that to be funny, but if you didn't, this site is not for you.
These web personal sites have only focused on people finding their perfect match. And these sites have provided fodder for numerous joke sites that poke fun of these online personal sties. What about an online personals site for monkeys?
That's the basic premise for Monkey Personals, another online personals parody site. What makes this site so brilliant is the attention to detail that the site maker has. The language used on the site is spot on to the language used by other personals sites like the following example:
We have helped thousands upon thousands of lonely, miserable monkeys find true love! Is there any better proof that this site works? Why limit yourself to the few acres in the jungle where you roam? You too can harness the power of the internet. Sure, there's plenty of fleas in the jungle, but there's millions of fleas on monkey personals!

it's not a complete site, as there is only one "member profile" there, but the premise and execution is great. One can even submit a profile to the site, though it takes up to 24 hours for approval. Very clean and easy to navigate. It made me laugh. I think that it brings in new meaning to "jungle love."


That's all for now.
