xPeeps Adds Magazine Style to Social Networking with Feature Exclusives

November 22, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Entertainment News
Charlotte, NC November 22, 2007 — xPeeps.com has taken a proactive stand on the future of Web 2.0 and social networking by combining their successful social networking platform with fresh, original content, as part of the evolution of the social web.

The adult networking site launched in early 2006, with a major revamp in July of this year. It was then that the site first began to incorporate more original content into the site's main features, adding modules to house feature articles, exclusive interviews and industry news.

“The addition of feature articles and interviews on xPeeps.com is an exciting new venture for our talented staff of writers. Due to AEBN's infinite connections in the Adult Industry, we have access to great behind the scenes material, allowing us to pack engaging, topical content into the homepage on a daily basis,” explains Shawn Gentry, AEBN’s Creative Director.

As with all new site enhancements, it started out slowly. Over the last several months, the features have gained in momentum and popularity. Now the site's original content has grown into a highly diverse set of feature articles which includes everything from exclusive interviews with industry stars, movie reviews, editorial and informational pieces, as well toy reviews and commentaries on current events relevant to the adult industry and its fans.

Because of its status as a popular destination for both stars and fans alike, the xPeeps team was able to harness the opportunities inherent in social networking to better deliver on one of its earliest promises: to bring fans and stars together. Powerhouse names such as Brandon Iron, Jasmine Tame and Tera Patrick have already given exclusive interviews to the site – a testament to xPeeps's reputation in the industry.

Additional material covers various nuances in the world of adult. Highlights include an opinion piece on erotica in the light of Banned Books Week, an informative article on anime in the adult space, and a movie review discussing one of Supercore's latest films.

The articles are decided upon and written by a team of writers, each of whom are users of xPeeps and who have experience with the industry as both fans and professionals. Each brings a wide variety of talent and experience to the site's original content, combining entertainment writing with news, opinion and style, no matter how brief or tongue-in-cheek. One characteristic every article has in common, though, is the desire to stay true to the community of xPeeps members.

There are more than a dozen published authors, including: Timothy Snarr, known for his in-depth interviews with the best in adult; The Lusty Librarian, erotica author and webmistress; Cooper, a popular blogger who covers the gay side of the industry; Karl Hungus, another popular blogger, whose beat tends to be on the kinkier side; and King Todd, who also acts as one of the site's administrators.

“In 2008, we will increase our efforts to produce more new content daily, leading the way for adult Social Networking through constant innovations in the creation of insightful content that not only entertains, but encourages our readers to think and participate in an ongoing dialogue. The Adult Industry is a fascinating arena for any writer to work within and we can only aspire to the traditions of leaders such as Playboy, Esquire, Maxim and other great magazines who have perfected the art of the interview and have elevated the writing of feature articles to an art form,” continues Gentry.

The combination of social web functionality and original content that xPeeps has begun to provide is a positive advancement in the realm of Web 2.0 and the future of professional web-based content. By utilizing the connections allowed by social networking and coupling it with fresh content that speaks directly to the interests of the community, xPeeps has struck the perfect balance to engage today's internet surfer.
