80s babies and before

Somebody need to make an app. A new one. Folks talk about doing something collective. I think it'd be a good place to start with the right mission statement and staff.

It was the late 90s and early 2000s version of facebook. Now that I think about it white people stole Myspace and Facebook from us,since we was doing that browsing profile shyt before them. Even though I never joined black planet or,fukked with FB or Myspace too heavy either. Just saying....

Yes, his mistake making it for just black people only.

Blackplanet. Good ol days. Someone I went to school with admitted to selling weed on his page. I'll never forget it. shyt read "YEA IF YOU NEED THE HOOKUP, HOLLA AT YA BOI, I'M LIKE WALMART IN THE HOOD BOI"

Someone found his page and snitched him out to the police (he had pics of him with weed & alot of money) and he got arrested. shyt was comical. He never returned to school that year.

how was that a mistake? They had asian avenue and whatever, too. What's wrong with having our own thing? No troll, btw.

That profile ish goes back to video dating but I'm always down to say blacks created stuff. Even if it's false.
