fleshbot’s top ten crush objects, racial controversy, and… pixie

6 January 2008
Disclaimer: it's all just a flimsy excuse for me to post more hot pictures of Pixie Pearl. But on Dec. 31 at the Fleshbot cube farm, we all threw our nominations into the empty box of Pecker Pops and our list of Fleshbot's 2007 Crush Objects Of The Year emerged. […]

Amber Mac leaves Citytv plus Webnation, puts me on her resume :)

6 January 2008
I'm sad to hear that Amber Mac is now really, really leaving Citytv plus Webnation because she was most certainly the funnest part (and we love hosts that are pretty *and* smart, too rare), yet I'm really excited to see what she does next. Ruler of a small South American […]

now stop everything and watch this HOT marching band video

5 January 2008
I'm so glad these are now online: I saw the original full-length movie of their 2004 Europe tour at the Roxie (I think it was a private screening), bu the video was never released. The sexiest clip -- and best example of Extra Action Marching Band sensory overload -- is […]

fun with the new Ocean YouTube app

5 January 2008
Usual disclaimer: Helio gave me an Ocean to play with. (YAY!) But a couple weeks back they rolled out a bad-ass YouTube app that has a nice UI, fast search and doesn't have partial content (as far as I can tell). I hate YouTube in general, but I'm all excited […]

I’m on another interesting webfluence list — the only girl, this time

5 January 2008
I don't know if it's since Forbes launched their Web Celeb list last year, or if people are reconfiguring their definitions on celebrity and influence as the Internet evolves the definitions of what all if it means. But here's one worth checking out to see a new angle on personalities […]

You too can feel less alone about your hidden feelings: BoingBoing Bingo nailed it. I hear all the bad kids are playing it these days.

network my panties, please

5 January 2008
I humbly offer my finest pair of unmentionables to the cause of networked underwear. Unfortunately I missed my chance at the ITP (nyu.edu) 2007 winter show a couple weeks ago, but Jaymes Dec and Matthew Fargo presented Jabberjockeys. Described as, (...) a pair of underwear (one male, one female) which […]

certainly part of the sex and robots discussion

5 January 2008
"death-star honeymoon" image by ME°°. Over at Artificial Intelligence and Robotics (and a bunch of tech blogs as well), they report that the makers of the Robosapien are going to be unleashing Femisapien as part of a new bot line at CES next week. She's matronly looking and seemingly as docile […]

awesome comments, and a video that pairs like a fine wine

3 January 2008
I see that the comments on my abstinence column are 145 and climbing -- lots of bible references, rape statistics, intense topical conversation and it looks like I really hit something here. Wonderfully, sweet Miss Suicide Bot sent me this video, which is a perfect match -- embedded after the […]

my friend said that if you keep your American Apparel clothes on, you’ll stay a virgin

3 January 2008
Above: image I shot of a French American Apparel ad in my copy of last month's French Playboy (print) See also. This week's SF Chronicle column explores what kids these days in public schools must be doing to learn about sex, and follows a bit of where all that abstinence-only education […]

a peach of a review for Best Women’s Erotica 2008!

3 January 2008
It's cold outside, and I'm sick as an abandoned kitten, but this review by Ashley Lister at the esteemed Erotica Readers and Writers Association for my new (edited) collection Best Women's Erotica 2008 has me basking in the glow of accomplishment (and proud as hell for all the authors). Snip: Best […]

the most-viewed Google Tech Talk on YouTube — mine

3 January 2008
This is stunning: Kevin Burton emails me saying, "#1 is Violet Blue's sex on the internet, the realities of porn, sexual privacy, with 888k views... the #2 has only 15k views. Awesome!" Thank you, Kevin! This makes me super-excited for my upcoming ETech talk in March. Guess I better get them […]

NYE 2008: It’s A Wrap

3 January 2008
Photo by Scott Beale/Laughing Squid. What a fabulous party, full of warmth, fun, the most delicious absinthe, a touch of decadence, people I deeply care about and things that went "boom". After a very, very painful year it was the perfect close. I'd like to thank the following sponsors for enthusiastic […]

for a special girl… pedalphilia and the pornography of the bicycle

31 December 2007
Scott just blogged this film screening event and sent me a nudge -- so I'll shamelessly repost and dedicate it to... a girl. She knows who she is. See also: Pedalphilia (image via).

good causes for your year-end donations

31 December 2007
Just in case you're ticking down the hours of 2007 and want to make a donation, don't forget about these extremely worthy places to put your scratch: * Scarleteen. No one has done more for under 18 sex-positive, all-gender, all-orientation sex ed, and no one had suffered financially this year the […]

great drm-free ebook question

30 December 2007
A publisher just emailed me asking how I'm packaging all my files for Digita Publications (DRM-free, erotic and how-to audio and ebooks). Publisher: What program do you use to save your files to make your ebooks? I see that you're offering more than simply PDFs and I'm curious. Me: I use Adobe Acrobat to […]

NYE: seeking

30 December 2007
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/evg/523644984.html (Ad is down, success achieved. Text is after the jump if anyone was/is curious) Update: the response was overwhelming, and I have many decisions to make! I found special amusement in seeing my post flagged for removal twice (easy to fix), even though it was not in TOU violation in […]
