While researching something else, I asked the creators of the OhMiBod
NSFW and the iBuzz __NSFW+music __whether they had ever hosted a group vibration event. You know, gather a bunch of users in a virtual nightclub, have a DJ to stream tunes, and everyone chats and flirts and has a great time while their audio-driven vibrators do what they do?
We might think of these gadgets as companions to portable music players but there is no a reason you can't use them with your computer audio jacks. (And yes, the toys come with a splitter so you can plug in your headphones too.)
Neither company had even thought of such a thing, but I'm betting someone has. And really, what a waste of an opportunity. Anyone who creates a sex toy that integrates with the internet in some way needs to be thinking about MySpace communities and Second Life and adult 3-D worlds, IMHO.
