Technology and Porn
By Aaron LawrenceSaturday April 24, 2010 at 3:19 pm PDT
With the advent of the iPad and the announcement of the first iPad-specific sites, CNN ran an interesting article on the history of technological innovations in the porn industry, as well as where the industry is headed over the next few years.
From the article...
From the printing press to instant cameras, from pay-per-view to VCRs, pornographers -- both professional and private -- have been among the quickest to jump on board with newly developed gadgets.
The first public screening of a movie was in 1895. Less than two years later, Coopersmith notes, the first "adult" film was released.
"The classic example is the VCR," said Oliver Marc Hartwich, an economist and senior fellow with Centre for Independent Studies, a conservative Australian think tank. "When it was introduced, Hollywood was nervous because the big studios feared piracy. They were even considering suing the VCR producers.
"Not so the adult industry. They saw it as a big new market and seized the opportunity."

Interview: Master Steve
By Aaron LawrenceTuesday February 23, 2010 at 8:08 pm PST
Master Steve prepares Top Boy for a bondage encounter.
Steve's Dungeon is an amateur SM and bondage website where guys ranging from 18-35 are put through the ropes... literally. From spanking to suspension and tickling to cock and ball torture, Master Steve delights in introducing newcomers to the SM/BD world and in taking experienced novices to the next level.
Master Steve was kind enough to take the time out from his busy schedule to answer a few questions for GayGeek.
GayGeek: Tell us a bit about yourself. How did you enter the porn business and what are you doing now?
Master Steve: Well, I sort of stumbled into the world of porn production. I have been doing bondage and role play for over 20 years and I was always into video taping my sessions. As the web began take off in the mid 90's, I decided to find out more about websites and html code. So I set up my own personal g-rated website for friends and family. Of course, I was also thinking about developing an x-rated bondage website where I could share the fun of bondage play with other horny men and women.

Interview: Vinnie Russo
By Aaron LawrenceSaturday February 20, 2010 at 3:14 pm PST
Vinnie Russo is the face of Str8 Boyz Seduced, better known as Sneak Peek Videos. He recruits straight guys who either need the cash or hope to do future straight porn work in return for doing a jackoff test session, then sees just how far they'll go with him on camera. The results, as you might expect, are highly variable and often quite surprising.
Vinnie Russo, the "str8" boy seducer himself
GayGeek: Tell us a bit about yourself - what roles have you held in the porn industry and what are you doing now?
Vinnie Russo: I was working as a head of security for a large local protection agency when I got an offer through a friend to do some work with All Worlds in CA. It seemed like easy money so after a couple flicks (Barracks Glory Hole 2, Brothers) I decided to start my own company. Currently I'm working with CJ at KjCASH to get the membership website rolling full steam. In the down time I enjoy fast cars and spending time with my Bengal cat, Bacci.

Here's a list of what I have been up to and what I'll be doing over the next few weeks...

Brilliant safe sex ad
By Aaron LawrenceFriday February 12, 2010 at 1:18 am PST
As you can guess from the Durex condom ad, I have become something of a fan of interesting ways to make people aware of sexual issues. Here's an interesting French safe sex advertisement. It's straight in nature, but still highly entertaining.
