A cell phone will do just fine. A new service in India lets the lovelorn and looking text message their profiles to a Web site. BharatMatrimony.com uses that data to work its matchmaking magic. Call it a "match made in cell" or "text in the city." SMS is such a huge hit in India that the site's founders figure the site won't founder, despite the fact that most marriages there are still arranged the old-fashioned ways -- through relatives and newspaper ads.
