@Lilly: Thanks for thanking me for posting this! Honestly, I've been wanting to start mixing some of the tech with the sex on this blog for a while but didn't know how it would go over because I can get very geeky. Anyway, maybe this is a sign that it's not so bad and I might as well do it. In any event, thanks for the link back. I wonder what a queer web would look like, too. ;) Initial thoughts: we'll need user-personalized semantic ontologies, just like we have user style sheets for CSS, for all the good that did us this past decade….

I do, however, have a vignette-y type story shaping up well that I will send in shortly for HTporn.

@Ranat:

Best to stop now.

Oh no, I kind of want to see where you go with that. :) And hey, you could always put it up as an HTPorn Vignette!

I’m glad you liked it. Let’s go kidnap Leonard Nimoy and get him some ears. And then we could like, hijack the Enterprise, and–
