Debby Herbenick gives the iPhone 4 and FaceTime video chat a turgid, throbbing thumbs up as a cybersex platform. I’ve been taking another look at the current options for teledildonics, so of course my first thought was “sounds great, and will it work with the OhMiBod?”

I figured it would, as the OhMiBod toys vibrate [...]

Let me start by saying that the heat functionality makes up for a lot in this new vibrator from Pipedream Products. But it doesn’t make it worth $160 to $300 retail. Maybe $80, and definitely $60. But not $300.

For my first test, I chose the high [...]

Professor Liu Yunhui leads a team in Hong Kong that has produced an internet-enabled robot hand. Connect the hand to a network and it will perform movements on one end of the connection based on the commands it receives from the other end.
In other words, it’s another consumer-level entry into the realm of internet-enabled [...]

The G Ki g-spot vibrator hit the shelves about the same time the argument about the g-spot not existing hit the headlines. I missed most of the furor, though, as I was busy testing the G Ki instead of responding to bait like, “The controversial G-spot has no genetic component and therefore probably doesn’t exist,” [...]

In the aftermath of the Adult Entertainment Expo last weekend, one of the rumbles making its way through the bloglands is “are we sure we want to see porn in 3D?” Or, on the performers’ side, “I’m damn sure I don’t want to make porn in 3D! HD is bad enough!”
Objections range from the glasses [...]

LoveHoney sent me a sample of this toy and it’s waiting for me at home. I’m on a business trip for my day job, so I don’t have first-hand experience to share with you yet.
It’s interesting and cute, a home version of the intimidating, industrial, and totally hot Chainsaw Masochist at fuckingmachines.com.

I’m annoyed by [...]

You know that the first modern vibrator was powered by steam, yes?
Look at what this engineering major with sexuality minor came up with:

What will you do if you didn’t pack enough novels, playing cards, and board games in your earthquake-or-other-disaster survival kit? Love Honey has a suggestion…

Earth Angel Wind-Up Vibrator
Why? Because the new vibe from Irish company Caden Enterprises is the world’s first 100% green sex toy. It’s made from totally recycled material and it never needs [...]

Happy sexy Earth day!
I’ve seen couple of sex toy recycling program websites over the years that turned out to be hoaxes, but just this year a legitimate program :

The Sex Toy Recycling Program, was launched in December 2008, and was certified by the Institute For Green Business in January, 2009. This “non-profit” [...]

I recently got a new laptop, and it has the little webcam thingie embedded in the frame around the display. And oh what an unflattering image it creates! When I angle the screen for best productivity, I end up shooting video from below my chin. This not only gives a nice up-the-nose perspective to anyone [...]

Latex doesn’t agree with my delicate flesh, so I thrilled when the non-latex Durex Avanti condoms came out way back when. They’re made of polyurethane and while they have a bit of a Ziploc-baggie feeling — even when they have to stretch extra extra tight around the person wearing them (ahem). But they don’t irritate [...]

Franklin Veaux, inspired by XKCD’s Map of Internet Communities, created a Map of Human Sexuality last year. Then with input from his friends, lovers, the Sex Drive forum, and some people who are all three, he finalized it as much as anything online can be “final.”
The interactive version lets you put green pins in all [...]

As many predicted, the adult trade show is noticeably smaller this year than it’s been in the past. And yet I still managed to go all day without seeing everyone I want to see.
I did a fast cruise through both the public area and the business-to-business area, looking for new or interesting sex-tech. There’s not [...]

I keep getting press releases that assure me that while all other retail is slumping, sex sales are doing just fine. The number and somewhat forcedly gleeful tone of these makes me suspicious — but I also am a firm believer in positive thinking. If retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers and producers of sex stuff want to [...]

Last month I prepared my L.A. house to rent out and moved to northern California in 17 days. (The other 10ish were spent out of town working full time onsite hours for day job clients.) Suffice it to say, I’m crawling back to blogging somewhat battered and bruised, but landed in the new place with [...]
