CrackSpace

CrackSpace is a new social-networking site which mashes the platforms of YouTube and MySpace together to form a specific space for hip-hop fans.

Set for official launch in November, the front-end of the site provides exclusive news, interviews, audio and visuals relating to the hip-hop world. The exciting develop is for aspriring artists who create their own profiles - CrackSpace has given them a ‘download store’ in which to sell their music, wallpapers, videos and even ringtones.

Another niched social networking site although the monetising option I’m sure will ensure they get users.

Insanely offensive name! Which degenerate thought of this bright idea for a name? Don’t tell me, you honestly believe that another association between Class A drugs and Black people or Black American culture is harmless? Not to mention glamourising and seemingly legitimising some sort of intrinsic relationship between Blacks and Crack!

^I think you are overthinking this a bit. My kids say something is “crack” because it is addictive. Have you ever heard of the Blackberry referred to as the “Crackberry”?
