BlackPlanet
BlackPlanet is an African-American social networking service for matchmaking and job postings; it 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 latecomer to social media sites, with three already in existence targeting people of color.〔 Benjamin Sun would also launch AsianAve and MiGente.com.〔https://alumni.stanford.edu/get/page/magazine/article/?article_id=36178〕 ==Company== The website is run by Community Connect of New York City. Community Connect also runs AsianAvenue.com and MiGente.com 〔 In April 2008, Community Connect was purchased for $38MM by Radio One, a Lanham, MD-based media begun by Cathy Hughes. Along with BlackPlanet.com, MiGente.com and AsianAvenue.com were also purchased. This move was taken by Radio One to diversify beyond radio to reach black audiences.
BlackPlanet’s broader mission is to strengthen the Black community.〔
