Year: 2007

Even though Miss Slutsky *scooped* my own blog announcement… ! It’s official today (friday): I am now represented by ICM. Tonight I’m home alone avec kitten after much hectic travel, reflecting (video from right after I finished the last signing). When I was 14, I stood on streets not far from this apartment asking people…

Just saw this, snip: Software filters work much better than a 1998 federal law designed to keep pornography away from children on the Internet, a federal judge ruled Thursday in striking down the measure on free-speech grounds. Senior U.S. District Judge Lowell Reed Jr. also said the Child Online Protection Act fails to address threats…

Just got to my hotel — the funkiest, cutest old-school Hollywood hotel imaginable (in fact, there is a movie being filmed here right now, in the lobby). I feel like I’ve flown back in time to old Hollywoodland days here, as the style is crazily Santa-Fe refurbished Art Deco, and if I didn’t feel retro-glam…

That’s the title of this week’s Chron/SFGate column, snip: From Barbary Coast days to the Beatnik era, the life of the San Francisco sketch artist has always held a romantic, nay, a racy allure. I’ve always imagined that someday I could pry myself away from the blogging and sexing to pick up a more bohemian…

Embedded after the jump! Ever one to put people on the spot who I someday may need to ask for help, I pulled out my video camera on a visit to San Francisco’s EFF offices and asked cyberlawyer and staff attorney Jason Schultz if he blogs “on the first date”. You can tell how surprised…

Yesterday I had the chance to visit the EFF offices, and delightfully, Jason Schultz gave me a mini-tour of their beautiful space. I shot a few photos, in this Flickr set. Everyone was so cool and friendly and funny — it looks like a great place to work, even if it is like a secret…

Irina and Eddie made the perfect SWXSW wrapup video — Panels, Hallways, or Parties? Always reporting the issues that matter and striking deep, GETV is on the scene. The video is sooo cute (and I have a cameo)! Also, the newest episode of bloggers undressed is up, asking the fascinating, the unexpected and the underreported…

For something I rarely do, lecture/workshop with non-student educators (scroll down to events for details). Steve Diet Goedde designed a flyer, I hope to get a digital copy to post here. I’m glad to have a chance to talk about Fetish Sex, as it’s such an important book (and a misunderstood topic) — but the…
