Positioning Power
In the game of chess, the queen is the most powerful piece in the game. She can move any number of squares horizontally, vertically, or diagonally as long as her path is unobstructed. However, at the beginning of the game, the influence of the queen is restricted because of the configuration of the pieces.

Magazine writer Max Chafkin talks about Markus Frind's strategies for growing his personal dating website, Plenty Of Fish.

But the idea resonated with thousands of people who were paying for a dating service and looking for a free alternative. He is now clearing $5 million a year after taxes. He has a handful of staff members and a nice, but mostly unfurnished, office in Vancouver.
