I love hearing them. I love reading them. I love writing about them.

This one, though, takes the cake – but I couldn’t resist.

Enter Moonit.

This is a startup website that claims to measure your compatibility with other people – professionally, romantically, and for friendship.

It was demo’d recently at TechCrunch50, both for entertainment and business purposes.

But, here’s the rub.

Moonit uses the science of astrology to deliver it’s compatibility ratings.

The site explains:

“Moonit is a social compatibility tool that is rooted in astrological and psychological underpinnings. We use thousands of years of data from the stars to help determine whether two people are compatible from a romantic, platonic and professional perspective. Then we track your relationships to help you learn from them over time so that you never make the same mistake twice, kinda like a virtual relationship therapist. We know you could probably figure out if you’re compatible with someone after a few interactions, but we can save you some of that time so you can spend it doing fun things instead.”

Is it hokey?

Sure, but I just had to try it out.

I entered my name, email address, and birthday – along with my boss’s name and birthday. One click and the astrological results revealed that yes – we are indeed compatible.  In fact, we received a 76% compatibility rating and along with this blurb:

“Issues will always come up during the course of any long-term partnership, but the two of you have the good sense and peace of mind to find a viable solution to any problem at hand and can see it through while others might resort to finger pointing and name calling.”

Yada, yada, yada… yeah right.

Will Moonit add any value to your small business or office?

Unless you’re a new agey kind of person – probably not.

This is a site that’s fun to use once and move on.

Although, I have to say it was spot on about most of the people in my life – enemies included.
