Bacchaus, who correctly concluded being a pornographer would garner more respect than being a lawyer, is close to closing ErosBlog.
At Wired Bruce Sterling is incorrectly hailing the change as a portent of doom for porn in general. You and I know porn’s weak because it’s mostly rubbish. It will be strong again when it stops losing ground to non-porn-sexy-stuff which doesn’t assault you with ugliness and stupidity.
Bacchaus’s full, pro-chicken, rant is here. He gets it exactly right when he pegs his problem as having nothing to sell. I worked that out at the beginning of 2008. Now I’m working to fix that.
If you’re a sex-blogger without a product, how are you making money? Anyone clearing four figures on ad links alone?
(Apologies getting to this embarrassingly late. Wired’s uncomfortably thick RSS feed has lain neglected by me to the tune of 300 posts.)
