I agree with the category system although I'd recommend tags as opposed to hard categories. Seems more flexible to me. It can be things like sarge mentions (Hacker looking for, Financing etc...) as well as two hacker types looking for people using the same technologies for development and so forth.
Drupal taxonomy system allows for free tagging or pre-determined categorization, or a blend there-of. Enhance that with OpenCalais integration and you wind up with some pretty powerful stuff!

Great ideas. I'm working on some type of tagging system now.
