DIY Remote Controlled Vibrator made by student for scavenger hunt
DIY Remote Controlled Vibrator made by student for scavenger hunt
This is a vibrator that would make McGuyver proud.
This vibrator was built for a student scavenger hunt competition at University of Melbourne. It uses the same thrusting motion as the Priceless (except it uses a flywheel instead of groove axel). The communications scheme works through the parallel port of a PC, giving you instant wireless internet access through a webserver, and bluetooth access by using a phone in a way that I'm not sure it was originally meant to be used. The whole project, including schematics and source code, are to be open sourced soon. Neat!

Google Talk, Jabber, and the Freesex Network
Unless you've been in hiding from most every type of media in the last couple of days, you probably know that Google has released it's own IM and Audio Chat service. However, the big news (for us, at least) is that it's based on Jabber, the XML-based open communications standard. In my first article on the FreeSex Network, I mentioned that Jabber would probably be the best platform to implement a free, open-source teledildonics service on, due to the open standards and cross-platform support. However, at the time that was written, there was no audio or video conferencing support for Jabber, which is one of the base requirements for a decent teledildonics network. Now that Google has picked up the project, they've already fulfilled the audio chat requirement, and are hinting that video chat will be available by the end of this beta. They also mentioned that while SSL is not currently possible directly through the service (there are SSL jabber relays available to fix this for the moment), they will be implementing secure messaging. So will Google enable the first open source, free, secure teledildonics network? We'll certainly be keeping an eye on Google Talk and its API, so expect updates as we think of ways to horribly pervert the service.

Sex Documentary looking for female participants
Sex Documentary looking for female participants
So I guess /8===> tends to cater to people with "different sexual choices" since I keep getting emails for these things. Ah well, who am I to deny anyone their 15 minutes of fame.
Documentary TV production company seeks women of all sexual
orientations [queer/straight, single/in relationship(s)] to be
featured in the second season of a program on The Documentary
Channel. The show explores the world of people's sexual adventures
and we would like to talk to women who have interesting sexual lives
outside of the "norm" who would like to share their stories. If you
are interested, please e-mail and we can discuss further. Thanks!

Disclaimer: You make a fool of yourself on this show, don't blame me. Just tell me when it's on so I can laugh watch.

PhonePurr: SMSDildonics? TextDildonics?
PhonePurr: SMSDildonics? TextDildonics?
Neither SMSDildonics or TextDildonics rolls off the tongue quite like Teledildonics, but the idea is still quite interesting nonetheless. Through the FREE PhonePurr software, you can down vibrate your friends silly by sending them a text message. With local/remote control and remote control, you'll never feel alone again! And it's FREE!

FreeSex Network: Sex and Second Life, OS X Style
FreeSex Network: Sex and Second Life, OS X Style
Mac users, welcome to the world of Teledildonics! (Ok, sure, you've had them before, but not in a while! :)
Kurt from our forums has posted a tutorial outlining how you can use a TranceVibrator and OS X in order to have sex through Second Life. This uses the same base LSL code that the Windows Sex and SL project did, so all you'll need to do is get the drivers, download the applescript code, and you're ready to go!

Up and Coming Adult Video Game Studios
Up and Coming Adult Video Game Studios: Black Love Interactive and Nest Egg Studios
One of the great things about being involved in the IGDA SiG SIG is getting the scoop on new studios that are coming out with adult themed games.
From Black Love Studios comes Rapture Online, a multifaceted adult sex game. You'll be able to live out fantasies with both solo and multi-(real or otherwise)person situations, create new settings, and interact in a multitude of sex-positive games.
Nest Egg Studios (Warning:: Flash only, loud music) is working on Heavenly Bodies, a multi-genre spanning MMO game for adults. Unfortunatly, I don't have much more info than that, but it looks interesting. :)

DreamStripper 3D: Like DOA Volleyball without the Volleyball or Clothing
DreamStripper 3D: Like DOA Volleyball without the Volleyball or Clothing
From the people that brought you some games I havn't heard of and one of the better MiniQuest games in Might and Magic comes DreamStripper 3d. Now, I was all set to give this my usual "Eh, it's another nakedness simulation" review, until I found out that there's actually a GAME in them there boobs! You can actually take on the role of a struggling college student or single mother and strip for cash, which will buy you more clothes and new moves! This is actually a really cool idea, though I'm not quite sure how it's executed. However, if you could hook a DDR pad up to this, I think we'd have a new exercise revolution on our hands.

New IGDA Sex In Games SIG and Blog
New IGDA Sex In Games SIG and Blog
After the Hot Coffee mod, the game industry has had to do a lot of thinking about how it presents sex in games, lest overbearing puritan legislation be rained down from the sky of their conservative god. Many positive things have happened in response, but one of the best I've found so far is the IGDA Sex In Games SIG (and not just because your's truly is a founding member, but that certainly helps :) ). Lead by Brenda Brathwaite of Cyberlore games (Lead Designer on the recent Playboy game series, and before that, Wizardry and Jagged Alliance to name a few), this SIG is dedicated to discussion and research on the presentation of sex in games, as well as what the future holds, and how to break new barriers without getting sued. There's a mailing list, blog, and message board available to discuss topics with professional game designers, gamers interested in how the business works, and freaks like me who are just happy to have some sort of academic/professional justification for what they do with their spare time.

Virtual Dating on your Cell phone
Virtual Dating on your Cell phone
Wow, the summer makes the news sloooooooooooooow. That plus this ridiculous addiction to Second Life, and this page might've altogether died if I hadn't found some stuff to talk about soon...
Apparently some people aren't happy with just playing tetris on their cell phones. These people apparently also can't get dates, and are predominately male, lesbian, or really wanna do it with their cell phones. In order to fill this hole in the mobile gaming market, there is VGirl, your virtual cellphone girlfriend. From the page:
Send your girlfriend messages, ask what she is doing, even flirt with her. Shower her with gifts, paying with real money. But treat her wrong or forget an anniversary and you'll get the cold shoulder!
Notice there's no real payback on this, i.e. instead of "Give her gifts and she puts out", it's just "give her gifts". She lives in your CELLPHONE, which means if she gets mad, you may start seeing calls to Japan on your phone bill instead of just getting slapped.
Though she does vibrate....

Architechture and Vice: Fantasy in the Magic Kingdom of Second Life
Architechture and Vice: Fantasy in the Magic Kingdom of Second Life
Ok, if you can, through writing alone, squick a guy that hooks sex toys to video games on a regular basis and publically publishes this fact, you may either have some serious talent or else serious problems on your hands.
Comparing Second Life to "Disneyland Porn" (no, seriously, I can't make that shit up), this fucked-up, weirdly worded article on sex in Second Life (something which we recently extended upon) contains such choice quotes as:
"Cuddling is, of course, the gateway sex drug, so, I suppose you could say that I was actually having the beginnings of thoughts about getting nasty in Cinderella's Castle."
and...
"SL goes down as the greatest public freak fest on the Internet. Where else can you find a world of people that dress up like humanoid animals and then hook up? These people give the phrase, "humping like bunnies" a peculiar kind of literal currency."
So, I mean, I suppose you get pretty numb to all of this when you've been on the internet long enough to realize anything can be a fetish. It's interesting to see someone who's never, er... experienced the furry community react to freaky deeky virtual sex, link it to Disneyland, and then call themselves a homophobe. Internal conflict much?
