Blaqspot.com - The New Facebook For Black People (Black-owned)

Blaqspot sounds like a dog, what about the name "Black Planet"? oopppps taken, then how about BlaqUniverse?
 
$5 Mo or $60 YR. Maybe it's the free version that's slow.

Nah, I doubt it. I checked the view source, they're running AWS. I think they're just getting more traffic now that the word is getting out. They did a server upgrade last night. So it's growing pains, but like I said, very good.
 
How come every time we wanna start a business, "Black" gotta be in the name? This is gonna limit investors and very likely, membership.

You think Mark Zuckerberg gave a fuck who was gonna use Facebook when he created it? Throw a wide net and catch as many fish as you can. Meanwhile the brotha just sit in his cabana politicking with his staff on how to expand, and no one's the wiser.

And if you had to put black in it, why not "Blackbook"? Or has that already been done?

you have a point there, just ditch a "black", we still know is own by a black person and that is important

I think the point is for this to be just for black folx....Rich "races" do it.

I think people do it thinking for the now rather than later. They do it thinking the "black" will fast forward traffic from black people but will eventually limit their potential.

It's not fear of white lash, it's simply about not marginalizing your business, especially a start up. If you wanna do a black-only offshoot later, after your platform has proven successful, fine.

Even in an environment as limited as Harvard, Mark Z. didn't care who was going to join up.
