A pause from the blog that is my life, to share with you the new free galleries in my inbox. Especially because one has got to be the cutest girl they’ve sent me yet — European model, Yanka. Also, check out the uber-sexy panty shots with Amandine, long-haired Alya, and Katarina getting messy with cake.…

GETV Roboexotica episode
I’m blogging this from my own bed, yay! I’m home safe and sound (except minus one major piece of luggage, so if you’re trying to call me I think my phone is still at Heathrow). I am absolutely beat and have lots to blog, but wanted to call your attention to the first GETV “live…
London tornado
It’s the last night of Roboexotica — I was on the Taugshow; Eddie and I shot a bunch of cocktail-heavy interviews for GETV and I’ll have a wrap up with award winners when I get home (tonight I had a lot of Absinthe, just packed, and I get on a plane in three hours). But…
Vote for Open Source Sex!
This is pretty amazing — my podcast Open Source Sex has been nominated for The 2006 Weblog Awards under the category “Best Podcast”. Not just best sex podcast, or best female podcast — it’s being taken seriously as a podcast, period! OSS is competing against a variety of others, including the Slate Magazine Daily Podcast,…
Roboexotica :: Day four (and Vienna)
Update: Roboexotica’s sever is down from all the traffic! I’ll re-update when it’s back up… now up and running nicely!

Lots of…
A short tour of the Vienna Museumsquartier
Today, a video: I’m blogging from the Vienna museumsquartier, where I’ve been spending most of my time — so very cool. In it, I’m hung over and sedate as I walk around looking at the central square… video is embedded after the jump. Also: here’s the video link for different playback options.
Alcoholocaust
It’s just after lunchtime and I’m sitting in the Roboexotica exhibition space on a lovely green vintage couch, actually literally in an installation that evokes modern retro cocktail culture. This is the definitive flavor of Roboexotica; it’s the kind of festival that blends European socializing where nothing is rushed and the distinctive culture fetish that…
Roboexotica, day one
Today is the opening day for Roboexotica, the international festival for cocktail robotics. As many of you know, I’m here in Vienna, Austria as a guest of the festival. I just woke up and the sun just went down — am I ready for a cocktail? Ummm, not quite yet, but I’m wandering around the…
Weird — I’m near the top of the “War on Blogs” hitlist?
I came across this yesterday, posted by Wil Wheaton: “Wikipedia Trolls try to get entries on bloggers deleted A well-known group of childish trolls is at it again, this time launching a coordinated effort to delete pages for several popular and well-known bloggers on Wikipedia. Their first (and current) target is Tony Pierce, and they…
Great snips
I just edited the cocktail robot descriptions for the exhibitions (they get my editing talents in exchange for… drinks). These are great excerpts: “A ballet of 15, 30, 150, 1000, corkscrews, dancing, generating their own sound, computer-operated, animated!” “Three different long drinks (plus ice) are prepared by CockBot I in the comfortable atmosphere of the…
