Alicia Keys With Her Boo

Alicia Keys stepped out for the first time with boyfriend Swizz Beatz as she hosted the Gotham Magazine annual gala presented by Bing at New York City’s Capitale on Monday night (March 15).

The 29-year-old singer had kept her relationship with Swizz Beatz private, but they finally decided to finally go public.

Alicia’s music video for her single “Put It in a Love Song” reportedly got pushed back last week. The video featuring Beyonce Knowles is said to come out this week, on March 17.

Who Can Do Better?

So I learned of a new time-waster website today via Huffington Post, and thought it was quite interesting. The basis of this website closely ties into many conversations I have had with my friends. When we judge a couple and think that one person is too good for the other person. A new site called www.candobetter.com follows a layout similar to HotOrNot.com’s, which displays photos of possible matches (animal, vegetable, or mineral–seriously) and lets visitors to the site vote whether ‘he’ can do better, ‘she’ can do better, or ‘perfect match’ if both partners are getting what they deserve. See an example below.

For anyone who’s ever asked herself, ‘can I do better?,’ a newly revamped http://www.candobetter.com/, is here to help you evaluate whether you’re too cool (or too hot) for your current mate.

CNN Money reports, ‘single men and women can upload pictures of a possible dating partner and get recommendations from users about their possible suitor.’

In short, it’s an opportunity for users to mine the wisdom of crowds for their love life (albeit in a different way than Relatious.com)

‘We understand singles are searching for quality, not quantity, and CanDoBetter.com increases the odds of finding a suitable dating partner,’ Dino Luzzi, CEO of Blast Applications Inc. said in the company’s March 12 press release.
