Michael Baisden Launches Social Network

Michael Baisden Launches Social Network

As if there weren’t enough multicultural targeted social networks online, Michael Baisden today launched his own. I See Color is a Ning based network that gives Baisden’s listeners a chance to interact with the syndicated radio host, as well as the rest of his thousands of listeners. I See Color, consists of content channels covering the latest news in the area of business, relationships, politics, and health. The majority of the content is syndicated from outside sites using a mix of RSS feeds and widgets.

The entire site is a mix of the usual uninspiring drab layout, design, and content we’ve grown accustom to seeing with Ning sites. What is impressive about ISeeColor.com is its rate of growth. Leveraging the power of radio, the site grew from a little over 400 users to approximately over 4,400 within hours of the site’s announcement on Baisden’s show.

Why get upset about someone exercising their constitutional right? Besides hasn’t that same man been arrested for sex with an underage female? Maybe his picture is on the sex offenders website. Don’t get upset by the sticks and stones, you know they’re coming, at least Obama does.

I can no believe that people think the way the do. The people in jail has better health care than you do. You tax payers are paying for it.

Please pass this along to Michael Baisden. I am putting together a special event for kids called “Fun Day”. The theme to is bring families out to watch their kids shine. I was wondering if Michael had a few minutes to discuss this event. My son and I had the pleasure of meeting Michael at the South Street Seaport in NYC and I hope to speak with him again. My email address is kevenhowell992@hotmail.com.

Thanks for your time.

This really is directed to Mr. Baisden – I transferred here to Atlanta Aug, 2008 through my job. Came here to expand my department from Hartford, CT to the firm’s Atlanta office. Needlesstosay, I was laid off 10/31/08, 3 months after arriving. It has been almost a full year of sending my resumes out to 100′s of employers, getting expert resume writing advice, registering with 10 different personnel agencies and still today, I am unemployed. I have no college degree however, I have 25 years plus experience working in the legal profession. Over 30 years working in a business environment, management skills, legal skills, running my own business. I recently took and passed my real estate exam in the hopes of starting my own business in real estate, which has been my passion for many years. However, I need a 9-5 job as my base until I can get the business up and running. I have reached a point now where my unemployment is about to run out & I’m really getting scared that I will become homeless. I have no family here nor any real friends. I need someone with clout, knowledge, and recognition to help me. Please, please, please HELP me!

Im a new member of i see color but a long time supporter of michael baisden and his show. We just need to respect and support each other in all aspects of our life. The five key problems today are ourfamily, our youth, our education, our communities and our economic opportunities. Its all interrelated of course.

DTurnerA says:

Mr. Baisden I listen to your show every day and I also listen on Sundays to the Jeffery Leving Dad’s right show and I would like to raise an awareness about that law firm , it is for the rich and not for the average working person , he makes it sound like they are reasonable , they are not , My son just had a bad experience with that firm and it is a good example of how lawyers will talk your money no results and get away with it and as a black person they have no heart when it comes to us Michael you are icon in the black community and good at informing the public and this is one time we need to be aware and I ‘m very hurt that my son was taken like that . and there is nothing that can be done but let others be aware. that we are being taken by a law firm promoting Dad’s right and reaching out to the black community.Be aware of what you are promoting to your listeners

Jimmie walker says:

Pimps in the Pulpit! There are some outlandish cats in the pulpit! This is really nothing new because as i was growing up in the church i would always see the decked out preachers coming in an looking like they are from Augusta GA. With all of the pimp qualities and behavior. Trick better have my money! but in today’s society i think the glam of the mega churches are pulling in all of the hustlers and pimps from their lackluster former career. They have figured it out! If they can get a hoop and WELLLLL and a GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD isssssssssss. then they can tickle the very thin skin of the so naive christian who is not aware of the wolf(pastor) in a robe and a slick suit and gain entrance and the key to the church and the safe. I say we need to be more aware of our spiritual prowlness and call it what it is! A pimp does not and should not be in the pulpit. To many of our pastors and minister are doing the work that God has called them to do. Let us stand together and boot the pimps out!

I am a Communicable Disease Specialist in the metro Atlanta area and I urge people to please get yourself and your partner tested for all STD’s and HIV before participating in sex of any kind. The number of HIV cases are increasing amongst the teenagers and if explicit sex education (showing genital areas with the disease or outbreak) is taught in the classroom, I feel more kids will be less likely to participate in sex or use preventive measures when doing so. Just please, get tested regularly.

Guest says:

cheryl says:

I think some people need to ge a life and leave Chris alone, he won’t be the first to hit a women and he won’t be the last one, nobody knows what really happen. I am not saying what he did was right, but we black people need ot stop trying to bring a brother down. The media (white people) is jealous because he is making money, just like in Larry King interview (the rich and famous who come for forgiveness). The only person he need to ask for frogiveness is Rihanna and she might need t ask him for forgiveness also. She h it him first. And another thing ( I am talking to our black radio station (not your show Michael Baisden) and other balck people in the music business. When R. Kelly was charge with molestion, you black people like JZ didn’t stop him from being on the award show. James Brown beat every wife he had, yo didn’t talk about him like you are doing Chris and you still consider James Brown the king of soul. B.B. Winans suppose to be a man of God, nobody said anything when he hit his wife, he didn’t go to jail. How many of you haven’t hit your girl friend or wife. Juanita Bynum husband beat her and he is still pastoring a church and still got members. The judges are just ridiculous with thier sentencing. One of the NFL football player kill a man and he got 24 days. Chris just knocked her upside the head a fews time and they gave him a ridiculous sentening. So once again, please give the brother a break.

What is this network about?

Ben Santiago says:

Boycott Barnes and Nobles book stores. Why? I have received a picture of a window display in front of the store located in Allentown, PA at the Lehigh Valley Mall. I had a circle of books which appeared to be promoting Obama and his family. It created the letter O. However, in th center of the circle, they displayed a book titled “Monkeys” and the cover was a picture of a monkey. In my opinion, this confirms the idea that this is no accident and it was intentionally done. I plan on uploading the picture for all to see, soon.

KATHY says:

I LOVE THE SHOW AND THE MUSIC IS SOOOO GOOD.

duane says:

hi michael ,you have a great show and you cover a variety of topics! one of interest was the dna testing to determine if “thats my baby”. another comment on a show was the boyfriends use of dna testing on his woman to determine if she had been fooling around!. where do we draw the line? which should come first,” the chicken or the egg” ? keep up the good work.!!!!!
