Welcome to the first Cyber-Dating Expert Weekly Flirt of the New Year.

I hope you enjoyed your holiday break. With a New Year, it's time for new beginnings. Perhaps a new look will start the year off fresh.

I'm pleased to announce the Cyber Face Lift of our site CyberDatingExpert.com. I hop you like the new look and feel. We have made it easier for you to submit your online dating stories on the site and are enjoying sharing our recent media. Feel free to comment on any stories. We enjoy hearing from you.

On a personal note, I decided to get a new look this week and had the popular Brazilian Blowout thanks to Master Hair Stylist, Steven at Claudio d'Italia in Brentwood. It's the next best thing to flying to Brazil and doesn't require a visa.

The year has really started off with a bang!

Get ready for the Season Premiere of "Ask the Cyber-Dating Expert Radio Show." We announced the 2010 line-up of guests this week and the response has been overwhelming. Our goal is to entertain and educate you by featuring a variety of online dating sites as well as bestselling authors. Whether you are single, in a new relationship, or happily married, you will enjoy hearing from our guests this season.

Our season premiere will feature OkCupid.com this Saturday, January 9, 2010.  Mark your calendar for the Valentine's edition, as my friend and author, Dr. Diana Kirschner will be our featured guest.
