I brought my own press pass to the event, which I highly recommend to anyone wanting free wifi and uncomfortable, upskirt-cameraphone-shot-producing beanbag chairs. I’m listening to Robert Scoble talk about the ‘blogger suite’ at the Bellagio (for CES, I guess) while uploading… Must be nice! New photos start here, two new videos; this one shows how tired I am, this one is a funny domination story. This is the cocksock who called me a bitch last night and told me “I don’t like you” when I snapped his pic (click the pic for the full story). Otherwise I’m having a great time and am being recognized by listeners and fellow podcasters like crazy — it’s so cool meeting everyone, including the Libsyn guys and hanging out with the Blip.tv hotties. Mike from Blip asked me, Melissa and Casey to go speak with him onstage about videoblogging in five minutes, so I gotta go… but I think I’ll skip the awards ceremony later where Dawn and Drew will get an award for ‘best mature podcast’ and Sex is Fun gets one for ‘health and fitness’. I was surprised to discover that Sex is Fun had never heard of 2257… more thoughts on that later.
Update: okay, I’m sitting in the speaking area — Blip pulled me onstage out of the audience during the videoblogging presentation! People clapped and said yay and “awwww!” OMG!!! Then they asked me why people should videoblog and podcast; I answered basically because the media distribution channels are now open to anyone, *we should*. People clapped and said yay! Then later I talked a lot about GETV and what makes us successful in what we do. Now people want to take pictures with me but I’m ignoring them so I can blog… it’s sort of a reflex to all this attention I guess… That photo — the guy who wrote the book “Tricks for the Podcasting Masters” bookended and framed his whole sex chapter on me and asked me to sign it, wow! More here and here.
Hope you enjoy my 2am podcast, woo-hoo! My life is so chaotic this week, this has been the only time I’ve had to do this. In 8 hours I leave with my lawyer for the PME this weekend…
Snip from Open Source Sex 46: Female Anatomy for Pleasure:
Female anatomy for pleasure! This episoide is my lecture on female genital anatomy — not for reproduction, as in every other treatment of the topic, but instead *purely* for sexual pleasure. Learn more (and plenty of oral techniques) in my book Ultimate Guide to Cunnilingus, and enjoy this textcast by reading the transcript below, or on your iPod by clicking the center trackwheel three times.

I’m thrilled to be in the latest Boing Boing podcast! It’s their second episode ever of Boing Boing Boing, a sort-of “best of” Boing Boing where the team chats about their favorite recent posts and then gangs up on a guest — someone they really like. And I’m beside myself with excitement they had me on the show!
It was one of my favorite podcasts I’ve ever been on, namely because they are all smart and funny and kinda see things sideways; but I loved being able to chat about signifigant BB posts with the people who posted them. This episode featured guns a lot, which I enjoyed highly, and intersex issues (covered in this NYT article; but please read this article I assigned to Thomas Roche years ago in the GV Magazine and ISNA for accurate information on the topic). But we also talked a lot about sexuality on the web — namely the kind of information disseminaiton I’ve been doing through various online media tools, and what we all think it means. Very cool stuff. I especially liked talking with them about their sexuality-related recent posts.
Thank you and big, big smooch to Boing Boing for including me in their excellent new series. Here’s their post on the podcast; here’s a direct link to the MP3; here’s their podcast RSS; here they are in iTunes.

Someone really did put my pictures in bus shelters around San Francisco. Holy holy holy shit. Another, different friend sent this in. These images are from my website. I've been pranked in the most incredible way! Eeeeeek!
I'm hyperventilating. And afraid to go outside!

My Chron column is *now live* on SFGate, yayayayay!!!! It looks ultra-fabulous OMGWTFBBQ!!! This is amazing! Even if this is the only one ever, it is a huge step for sex-positivity, old and new media, San Francisco sex culture (and SF notoriety in general) and accurate sex information -- not […]

This is one of those moments when I realize I live a truly charmed life -- remember the movie that won Seattle's amateur porn contest/fest, HUMP! 2, put on by The Stranger? I waxed at length about Cum On Love, Bo Logan is Waiting, how sweet and funny and heartwarming […]
