<p>The tenets of Web 2.0 are not without their pornographic, or otherwise erotic, applications. We&#8217;ve covered <a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2006/07/25/youtube-has-porn-clone/">PornoTube</a> and <a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/01/01/eroshare-user-generated-porn/">EroShare</a>, both of which are sites for user-generated porn. Now we&#8217;ve come across a site called <a href="http://www.boobik.com/">Boobik?</a> (yes, with a question mark in its name, and no, NSFW). If PornoTube is a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/">YouTube</a> of porn and EroShare is a <a href="http://www.flickr.com/">Flickr</a> of porn, then perhaps it&#8217;s <a href="http://www.crunchgear.com/2008/01/22/boobiksexy-twitter/">best to describe</a> Boobik? as a <a href="http://www.twitter.com/">Twitter</a> of porn.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/wp-content/boobik_shot1.png"><img src="http://cache0.techcrunch.com/wp-content/boobik_thumb1.png" class="shot2" /></a></p>
<p>To be fair, Boobik? doesn&#8217;t explicitly bill itself as a place for sharing user-generated pornography. Rather, it places the emphasis on social networking (the Facebook of porn?):</p>
<blockquote><p>boobik is a place to meet people the sexy way.</p>
<p>You can get to know people through them sharing and broadcasting short experiences, thoughts and fantasies. By that we mean what they did last night, just now (hand in skirt under the desk), with whom and how many times). And don’t forget them pictures as well&#8230;</p></blockquote>
<p>But the result, I imagine, will be mostly just to share pornographic material with others. The site&#8217;s frontpage shows a series of microblog posts, some of which contain photos with nudity. You can post text, photos, and video embeds with Boobik?, apparently of any rating level (the terms of service doesn&#8217;t preclude explicit material).</p>
<p>Want to share erotic thoughts on the go? You can also post to the site from a mobile phone, IM account, or email.</p>
