Zivity.com...the new Myspace?

Silicon star, Scott Banister, Cyan Banister, his wife, and Jeffrey Westcott launched the new social network last year. Zivity has a two main differences compared to the more popular Myspace and Facebook. The site requires a monthly membership fee and IT ALLOWS NUDE PHOTOS! That's right, there are pictures of naked people.

Here's how it works. Members join and they do the same thing they do on Myspace and Facebook, making friends meeting people. Here's the difference, members get access to the nude photos and photographers and models can post their pictures and get paid. Members get five votes per month and the photographers and models get paid depending on how many votes they get.

According to Banister, the site also does not have ads which explains the subscription. Having no ads also allows the member to post nude photos and have confidence that his/her information will not be used for profit by anyone else.

I wonder how this will turn out?
