BlackPlanet en
BlackPlanet is an African-American community website, or Social Network Site, and started as a place for matchmaking and job postings but also has forums for discussion on political and social issues. BlackPlanet was launched on September 1, 2001 by Omar Wasow, an internet analyst, who in 2001 was running ‘New York Online’ a pre-web community he started in 1993 from his living room in Brooklyn. It was the brainchild of Wasow and Community Connect’s CEO Benjamin Sun. Launched in 1999 it was a relative late comer to social media sites, with three already in existence targeting people of color. Wikipedia [ - ]
