'Barney' Enters Online Jungle

(CBS)  This ain't your grandmother's etiquette problem, though maybe it's your mother's. "Barney's Blog," an online feature tied to the CBS sitcom "How I Met Your Mother," promises an exhaustive multi-part probe of the online dating scene from the modern male point of view.

Of course, "Barney," aka Neil Patrick Harris, is something of a blowhard, and he has infinitely more wrong-headed opinions than he has girlfriends, but nobody's perfect, online or off.

Or, as "Barney" succinctly sums up Darwinian theory: "When chicks adapt, so too must you, if you wanna get laid."

To see the online world from the "Barney" point of view, see Barney's Blog.

For more about the show, see the How I Met Your Mother site.
