After nearly 8 years of running 123-Matrimonials as a paid service, I've made the big decision to convert it to a 100% free community driven Indian matrimony site. My aim is to make 123-matrimonials the best platform for Indian matrimonial. I've spent a lot of weekends and late nights to develop the next generation matrimonial platform. My goals were pretty simple - keep it simple and useful. To that end, here are some of the highlights of the new site

Features

 Technology

-Web 2.0 Matrimonial: Effective use of AJAX to minimize server roundtrips & to provide a fast user interaction.

How can I get involved?

Being a community driven site, users involvement is essential to grow the site & maintain quality profiles. I'd be very interested to hear from you, your thoughts and ideas to take this to the next level.
