The Web’s also got its (exceedingly) fair share of naughty stuff. The kind of naughty that requests age verification, and occasionally, a few bucks’ worth of credit.

Enter, Ning.

When you think of the “naked Net," you might think of technological openness; you imagine few things are hidden out there in the cloud. You might also think of content that can cordially be described as explicit material. But those adult-oriented offerings are usually found out where all standard-level dot-com domains reside. They don’t normally operate at the sub-domain level.

Yet we found recently that Ning is an exception in that regard. CPM Advisors pointed out this week that the social networking engine charted its November 2007 statistics, and the results show at least three non-family-friendly titles emerge among the top 20 Ning networks.
