2008-07-16 22:09:32 - BeOneCity.com becomes the first HIV+ lifestyle community

Los Angeles, CA- Be One City Inc. announces that www.beonecity.com/, a new free, social and cultural network for HIV+ gay men is now online.

Conceived by entertainment and advertising professionals Peter Brook and David Purdue, BeOneCity.com is a technologically cutting edge social networking website with a purpose.

'There has been a paradigm shift within the HIV community: Living with HIV

is no longer just about surviving. With the advances in medication, it's now a manageable chronic condition; we've switched our focus to living' Said Mr. Brook.

Unlike most social sites, www.beonecity.com/ is also intended to be a cultural center for its members. News stories, art, fiction, video and a blog are all featured on its homepage.

The site's community bulletins and resource listings for the HIV+ man may soon grow exponentially. 'We want the HIV positive community to use us as a nexus, no matter where the member may be on the planet,' said Mr. Purdue. 'We believe that BeOneCity.com will become one of the most vibrant lifestyle communities on the web.'

Based in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Silver Lake, Be One City Inc. was begun by Peter Brook and David Purdue, to fill the void Mr. Brook found online when he became positive. The company targets HIV positive men on a local, national and global level. The company intends to expand its online services to provide a global HIV positive 'sister' site within a year that will serve the heterosexual positive community.
