The site was started in 2004 by Dan Grover and Alex Plank and includes a chatroom, a large forum, a dating part, and many articles describing how to deal with daily issues.
After being featured on Slashdot for an interview with Bram Cohen, Wrong Planet quickly began to grow increasingly larger. In 2005, an incident involving a member of the site, William Freund, gave Wrong Planet national mainstream publicity after being mentioned on Fox News and programs such as Good Morning America.
Since that time, Wrong Planet has frequently been referenced by the mainstream media in stories about Asperger's Syndrome and has gained more than 5,000 registered members since its creation less than two years ago.
