New site includes instant messaging, enhanced photo management, professional networking tools for its members

New York, NY -- Community Connect, the leader in online community destinations for US ethnic groups, today re-launched AsianAvenue.com, the largest US web site dedicated to serving the needs of Asian Americans, onto its new social networking technology platform.

The new site presents a fresh look and feel to AsianAvenue.com's one million registered members. The introduction of several new features including: instant messaging, enhanced photo management and professional networking, provide members new ways to express themselves and meet new friends within their community.

"After nine years, we decided to upgrade both our technology platform and our user experience," said Ben Sun, CEO, Community Connect. "This new product provides our members with the state of the art in online social networking and community experience."

Initial member reaction was positive. "The new professional networking section allows me to meet new professionals within my community in addition to all the social contacts I have made over the years," said Dan Kwok, a member since 2000.

Community Connect plans to roll out this new platform to its other sites, BlackPlanet.com and MiGente.com in the first half of 2006.
