ia header SXSW Interactive (March 7 11, 2008): Vote on panels, send some sex bloggers to Austin!

SXSW (which stands for South By Southwest) is a week-long annual music, film and “emerging technologies” festival that takes place in Austin, TX. The SXSW Interactive festival celebrates the creativity and passion behind the coolest new media technologies. It’s held in Austin, Texas, March 7-11, 2008. What’s hotter than smart geeks talking about sex?

There are hundreds of panel submissions. There’s a panel picker to help you select and vote for your favorites, but I’ve made it easy for you to vote for these (registration required), and send some really smart bloggers and pals (Elizabeth, Lux Nightmare, Cory Silverberg, Rachel Kramer Bussel, Chris Hall, Lisa Vandever, Audacia Ray and Violet Blue) who write and think about sex and sexuality to the conference:

  • Elizabeth Wood’s Pink Ghetto Blasters: Destigmatizing Sex via Online Community Building with Chris, Rachel, and Lux.
  • Cory Silverberg’s The Future of Sex in Interactive Narrative
  • Cory Silverberg’s When No Means 01001: Sexual Ethics and Interactivity
  • Lisa Vandever’s The Porn Police: Know the Rules
  • Violet Blue’s Sexual Privacy Online

Voting is currently scheduled to end at 11:59 pm on Friday, September 21. Please go register and vote. And please help spread the word, and get the vote out.

I want to go. . . so many conferences, so little time. I’m planning on going to Arse Elektronica and Sex 2.0.

I didn’t tell them, but we’re all sharing a room. Should be fun! ;-D

Welcome visitors from ABC News.

Esteemed sex educator and performer Ducky Doolittle has an article on the ABC News site:

Seeking Sex Advice? Where to Get Some
Online, on TV and on the Radio, Where to Find Sex Advice That Even Experts Would Take

In the sidebar, click on the ‘Top 10 Sex Info Resources.’

Yep, the Carnival is listed! In the same list as Susie Bright, Sue Johansen, Violet Blue, and Cory Silverberg. Shit, we are in really good company.

That ad at the bottom of the popup is blocking 2 of the links (including Violet’s link) – you can see the complete list on Ducky’s Livejournal.

(Deep bow)

Thank you so, so much, Ducky! We are honored.

What other columnists should I be linking to? Please leave suggestions in the comments. I can’t promise I’ll include them all. I notice the Village Voice has a nice spiffy new site, but when are they going to ask RKB to rejoin them?

And someone (maybe you) needs to update the Wikipedia entry. It’s outdated.
