Gay Social Network BigJock.com Launches Free Video Chat Rooms and Instant Messaging

BigJock.com, the most comprehensive free Social Network designed for gay men, has completed the integration of its Instant Messenger, Chat Room and Video Chat features. BigJock.com, launched in November 2006, provides gay men a real alternative to mainstream social networks that cater to mass audiences, and fee-based gay dating sites.

BigJock.com is free to join, and all members can utilize each of the site's features which include blogs, forums, event listings and postings, classified ads, chat, public and moderated groups, photo albums, picture ratings of other members, and gay-interest news headline feeds.

"Enabling our members to interact in real-time is a big step toward building BigJock.com into the global destination for the gay community," BigJock.com founder Richard Rudometkin stated. "All members can text chat, and if they have access to a web-enabled video camera and microphone, the only things separating members are the miles they are apart," said Rudometkin, also adding the site now boasts members in all 50 states and 75 countries.

Completely self-funded, BigJock.com generates revenue through advertising and sponsorships from companies and networks that seek to communicate with the highly desirable, yet hard to reach gay demographic.

BigJock has been featured in the leading technology blog, TechCrunch.com; and VentureBeat.com, the Silicon Valley Venture Capital column written by former San Jose Mercury News and Wall Street Journal writer, Matt Marshall, as well as Vator.tv, a video-based start-up site launched by Bambi Francisco from CBS Market Watch.
