Within recent years the popularity of social networking websites has reached new heights. Online communities connect people from all walks of life with the click of a button. Migente.com, a special online community for Latinos, is a fresh website that offers its users more than chatrooms.
Migente is similar to Blackplanet.com, an African-American social networking website which caters its content for Black audiences and communities, in that each website offers a unique ability to speak to the masses of their particular audience.
The site carries the torch where mainstream social networking websites leave their ethnic audiences in limbo. It provides news information that is highly central to the lives of Latinos. Migente is broken into three sections: dating, professionals, and jobs. The dating section of the site is typical online networking fanfare among single individuals. The professionals section of the site allows individuals who have careers to network and mingle. The jobs section displays jobs postings for Migente.com's users.
The website allows users to customize their pages by adding music, pictures, videos, and other general content. The music page, which is powered by Vibe magazine, has an artist spotlight section that profiles five artists and gives users the option to listen to their music. Migente.com also allows users to create their own band profile if they are aspiring musicians. The top five music genres on the website are: Hip Hop, R & B, Latin hip hop, Bachata, and Pop.
Migente.com also has a style section where users can get style tips and ideas for new and trendy looks. There is a video section where users can post and watch videos, as well as provide ratings on video clips.
Overall, Migente.com is a great online community for people of Latin descent to congregate and discover new things.
