3. Male Home Fertility Testing: Ladies, now you don't have to be the only ones to worry about the tick-tock of your biological clock. A new home testing kit allows men to check their fertility. With the EleMENt testing kit from Pria Diagnostics, skittish men can test how well their little sailors are swimming — an issue very important to those who plan fatherhood for later in life.

The $40 kit — currently undergoing Food and Drug Administration testing — costs a fraction of traditional lab tests and is said to have 95 percent accuracy.

You might want to buy it now. You gray, balding bachelors aren't getting any younger. 4. Go Spam Yourself: Thankfully, technology is giving us all sorts of ways to brush off a poor sod who can't take a hint. Years ago, you could give a guy the wrong phone number. Now, you can give him an e-mail address from PaperNapkin.net.

When the annoying guy writes you, he'll automatically get the "Dear John" e-mail of a lifetime.

"If you got this e-mail address, it wasn't an accident … you've definitely been rejected," the letter says.

The best part: You don't need to register. Every name followed by "@PaperNapkin.net" works automatically. Want to get rejected from me? Just e-mail Buck@PaperNapkin.net. 5. Personal Ad Makeovers: If your love life needs a boost, and you're not quite ready for cosmetic surgery, the next best thing for online daters might be this — a personal ad makeover.
