Goal For The Green

It’s always nice to feel like you’ve found a place to call home on the internet.  We search for a common ground or tie that binds, somewhere to create a trust and friendships that creates a strong bond.  No matter what the group is, the more specific the ties and offerings are, the stronger the friendships and bonds between people often become.

Commonalities are the main focus for many social networking and news sites.  They attract millions of users by having a common thread, that makes us feel as if we “belong”.

Disaboom.com was launched almost a year ago.  The results have created a real sense of community.  The common bond is that it is a community for people who are impacted or living with functional limitations or disabilities.  They also acquired their own dating site calledLovebyrd.com for their targeted group.  They offer legal help, chat rooms, blogs and job postings.  They have acquired an impressive partners list that includes Ford, General Motors, Johnson & Johnson, RE/MAX and Avis to name a few.

Web Tribes, is another young site (founded in 2006).  They offer a community that supports those who suffer from depression, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, addiction, and HIV and AIDS.  Visitors are inspired to join a tribe that focuses on each specific condition.  The user then finds a commonality with others who have the same affliction.  The help is found in the inspirational messages the users send to each other.  They realize that they are not “alone” in what they are dealing with.

The Root, is a news site targeting the black community.  The site includes video interviews, blogs and genealogical information.  They pride themselves in being a departure from traditional American journalism.  They have been doing a fine job of raising the profile of black voices in the media, and fostering interest in black culture around the world.  Theses three sites have really grown in the last year and found their common thread in the world wide sea of the web.
