SexNotWork, the sex-blog network we’ve been working on for the last few months, will be taking applications for membership late next week.
The name’s a pun, but it’s not a bad one, and having the word sex in it won’t hurt a bit. It’s not ‘Sugar’ branded because even my ego has edges, and my feeling is that all this currently popular pseudo-corporate ‘corp’, ‘Media’ and ‘inc’ stuff’s going to sound as cheesy as ‘Cyber’ in a decade’s time. For the same reason there’s no mention of the ‘B’ word. SexNotWork is open to any RSS equipped site (or podcast). If you really want to be part of something called ‘CyberSexBlogsInc’ I’m sorry.
We’re borrowing a trick from 9rules.com, and applications for the first phase of membership (I’m not going to call the earliest members ‘Founding Fuckers’ but I’d like to), will last just 24hrs. Then we’ll see what we’ve got and contact the blogger’s we’re interested in. Yeah we’re the popular kids…
SexNotWork.com is currently home to an email sign-up form. If you have a sex-blog and want to be part of the new network, give us your email there and next-week we’ll send you a note when the application window opens.

Sam,
Are you still looking for editors and writers or have you decided to aggregate existing sex blogs?
Love the name!
BA – yes and yes. The blogs I’m launching aren’t SexNotWork – even if they’re in it. The network will aggregate existing blogs. My blogs are a separate ball on the same Venn diagram.
Cool. Don’t know if I’m in the running, but I would love to edit…
What about “Founding Fodder”?
Make sure to check out the Qpodders and not just soccer girl, etc.
Good luck!
Founding Fornicator?
I have this thing with the word ‘fornicate’. When I’m up late (yes, writing about fornication/fucking/sex etc), and the tv in the lounge is blaring, there’s always some TV Evangelist (I can’t believe networks still buy the broadcasting rights to these shows) and the words fornicate, fornicator (not to mention the ‘evil sin’ of it all) comes up, all the time.
zero – Fodder’s a bit harsh. What about Babeonauts?
or it could br ASStronauts
I like Babeonauts. Sounds like a Kraftwerk song gone Spring Break.

Chris – that’s good. It’s like a good comic-book. I have created my own nemesis.
I dig asstronauts or babeonauts. There’s just something about walking up to someone and introducing yourself by saying, “I’m an ASStronaut,” with a meaningful eyebrow-wiggle…
Sam – You sure don’t tell us much about the new site and what it does, what’s expected, what we have to do if we currently have a site, or anything really. Kind of difficult to make a decision about joining if we don’t know anything about it, don’t you think? Do what you want, just think a little more details would help some of us know what you are looking for.
Artfuldodger – I mean come on? Are you telling me you’re not reading every post here and committing them to memory?
I’ve written a lot about networking and what it means here. The new site will be a network hub, and this network will work similarly to many others (and they’re popular currently). Check out the ‘Networking’ tab and let me know if you’re still in the dark.
Kick ass design look on the sexnotwork! I’ve bookmarked it and watch with anticipation on it’s development.
