A new slate of internet sites and start-ups intends to capitalize on the up tick in porn consumption.
TOPICS:
KEYWORDS: pornography; web20
Recent developments in the online Porn industry are not surprising but terribly disconcerting. Note these recent startups:
- One start-up attempts to replicate the popular video sharing website YouTube but with a porn twist of course
- Capitalizing on the increasing trends of voyeurism and amateur porn, another site allows anyone to upload their own porn.
- A virtual reality world focused almost solely on pornography and virtual sex.
- As if college kids didn't have enough sex on the brain... Playboy steps in with a user-sharing website for pornography restricted to college-age kids. See here.
- A new private investment site promising high quality pictures of women screening for content. Essentially, a high end virtual men's club.
- Add to this the sites that replicate StubleUpon, Digg and Technorati and you have the making of new Porn 2.0 movement.
What does all of this mean? Well, with the
recent news that the Porn industry is losing out to homemade porn... they had to do something.

Face it ... there is not a whole lot of skill required to take off your clothes in front of a camera.

That's the beauty of it!

What is most disconcerting is that anyone pays for what is essentially available for free. It suggests that stupidity is on the rise.

Well, with the recent news that the Porn industry is losing out to homemade porn A porn customer can see
1) A bored coke addict faking.
Or
2) Some exhibitionist couple having a good time
How baffling.

"Face it ... there is not a whole lot of skill required to take off your clothes in front of a camera." This reminded me of a comment made by Larry Elder on SoCalif radio some time ago: I you approach a girl and offer her money for sex you are guilty of solicitation and she is guilty of prostitution. On the other hand if you appoach a girl and offer her a "screen test" for a porn movie, then you are a producer/actor and she is an actress...

"What is most disconcerting is that anyone pays for what is essentially available for free. It suggests that stupidity is on the rise." Pardon the skepticism of a 60 year old man...but what is it exactly that is free?

Virtual prostitution is what it should be called.

Competition in any industry is good. Quality goes up, price comes down.
It’s bad form to post links that all go to your spam page.

"Sex on the internet." Oh...thanks for clearing that up for me, I somehow thought you meant real sex, which I have found to be quite costly in the long run, one way or another.

>>homemade porn
speaking of that, in Boston recently a woman bought a camcorder from Wal-Mart, one that apparently had been
returned by someone else. Well, Wal-Mart didn’t check
the tape that was inside...the woman who bought the
camcorder recorded some footage of her pug dogs—
then as she played it back it abruptly made way for pix of a man’s penis on her big screen!
From the guy who’d returned it earlier. Yikes...they’re
trying to figure out (can’t they check return records?)
who had bought the camcorder before.

Thanks for the heads up, I’ll keep an eye open for that.
