<p><span class="xn-location">TORONTO</span>, <span class="xn-chron">Feb. 23</span> /CNW/ -- If there's one kind of story so compelling that even children will sit still long enough to listen, it's the story of how a couple first met.  Everyone loves a happy-ending tale about how two people managed to find each other, often despite geographic distance and differing social circles. When that kind of connection is forged over the Internet, the resulting stories are not only riveting, but now potentially profitable.</p>
