a domain ripe for the cloning: subwaycrush

On Wednesday I pointed you [mb] to a story about after six months of a guy crushing on a fellow Metro rider, a guy and his bus crush, met, dated, and eventually got engaged (on the bus). I couldn’t decide if it was cute or not (you really have to like the bus to not mind it being the site of your engagement, and it gives you a whole new perspective on fellow passengers).

It was certainly more prolonged and typical Seattle style than the story from last summer about NY Girl of My Dreams, and the guy who found his train crush via billboard, viral social networking, and network news. Today, Rex (fimoculous) points out a new site that bypasses craigslist’s missed connections, alt-weekly’s I SAW U’s, and massive ad buys called subwaycrush.com. (wher a Link-alike has already been spottedon the L-train [#] .)

Do you, like Paul Constant [slog], think that is impossible to translate to Seattle’s Metro? If so, is it the bus experience or the Seattle psyche?
