Suicidegirls....Next generation for adult ?

[sarettah]

Ok, so I picked up a recent issue of AVN (Jen put the last few issues into our bathroom cause I hadn't even been opening them as of late..too busy trying to get programming projects done), anyway, I leaf through and their is an article that mentions suicidegirls and several other sites and the methods they were using to create additional revenue off of existing members. I had heard of suicicidegirls before, but had not looked at it at all. I knew it was a goth/alternative type site and that was about it.

So, I went to take a peek. Very impressive. Extremely sticky to say the least. A very attractive mix of pretty softcore porn (playboy with tatoos and piercings), News (stories submitted by readers and from other sources), original articles, interviews, messageboards, chatboards, webcam areas and a whole lot more. Lots and lots of things for members to do and see.

I went and looked for an affiliate program and did not see one. I did however see that members could earn "points" for various activities. These included herding traffic and getting new members to sign up. Designing new banners and buttons and so forth. Very cool idea, get members and all you are giving away is points that can be traded in for suicidegirls gear such as T-shirts and shot glasses and such.

hey are you Dmoney? and how did Jen get into your bathroom?

The suicide girls were out of Portland, not heard too much lately, I think they moved....

also, now you see the direction I am taking www.420calendar.com

I am attempting to make it stickey, get people, then add the revenue sources in that apply.... I agreee this is a god idea they are doing.

Most people are smart enough to realize having a pic of a gothic chick isn't probable cause - having a calendar with pot plants plastered all over it will convince most judges that the police did have probable cause.

It's like idiot kids who have bumper stickers of pot plants on their car and wonder why they get searched. Why brag about illegal activities unless you really wanna go to jail?

I used to smoke pot...and smoked a lot. I never announced it...always was discreet and had no problems. It was always the dullards that bragged/showed off that got nailed. Cops don't care about weed - the paperwork for a recreational user isn't even worth the bust, unless you wave it in their face or they want you for something else. Discretion is the better part of valor...and avoiding catching stupid cases.

In fairness to Joesho Aeon. Portland is kinda like the U.S.'s version of Amsterdam. Very cool to 420.
