Several months ago, I started a series of posts which I entitled "Adult FriendFinder", or "AFF". Adult FriendFinder has been long known for providing Internet advertisements using pictures of "local" women, with many of their pictures frequently described as pornography.
An unidentified criminal organisation is currently producing a large number of blogs, which are being hosted by BlogSpot, and which use Adult FriendFinder ads as their signature. These blogs are maintained in great volume, so when you use the "Next Blog" link in the Navbar for any amount of time, you will likely surf to one or more.
The volume of these spam blogs, or splogs, in BlogSpot, is one of the reasons why I, and a few other bloggers, now advise those with blogs read by sensitive people, to remove the Navbar from your blog. I make this advice, ever mindful of Blogger repeated advice that the Navbar should not be tampered with.
And this is why I currently refer to using the "Next Blog" link in the Navbar, as "Porn\\\\Next Blog" surfing.
Adult FriendFinder was recently censured by the FTC, and promised to cease producing pornographic advertising easily visible. They claim to have hidden any undesirable pictures behind a warning.
The latter claim is, to put it mildly, hot air. To truly understand what I'm talking about, you will have to see for yourself. But, only look after you have properly prepared your browser. Please, do not surf these splogs without protection.
Please, if you are disturbed by the nature of what you see, do not complain to me. I am only advising you to look, so you may understand why your blog gets so little random traffic, or why your page rank has dropped recently. Please, complain to Blogger, and do so frequently.
Like any game, there are rules. You are free to develop your own, however (and leave me comments here discussing your rules), if you wish. I explain the rules, and show a sample game, in my next post.

- Install your own "Next Blog" bookmark / favorite.
- Only use your browser from within a sandbox, or as a proxy server client.
