Twitter (the free service that allows you to see what your friends are up to via the website, instant messaging, or your cell phone) has released a new feature called "tracking". Tracking allows you to see any update people make with any word or phrase you want.

So for instance, I'm currently tracking, "bike", "bicycle", "sex", "portsmouth", "ghent", "starbucks", "animal crossing", "opium", "cigar", "stogie", "fixie" (Don't ask. About any of it.) So if a Twitter-er makes an update like, "I'm studying anabolic steroids at Starbucks" I get a little notification, the same as if someone goes, "I just had sex on my bicycle with another girl named Fixie while having a cigar laced with opium in the back of a Starbucks in Portsmouth." It may sound dumb, but it's a lot of fun and very interesting to see what strangers all over the Internets are up to.

Anywho, yesterday some stranger Twittered how anyone not following the Midwest Teen Sex Show was missing out. I had never heard of it, but it had sex in the name so I checked it out. And holy crap, I wish I could kiss that guy. Right on the spot where your neck, jaw, and ear all meet. People like that.

Basically the show is centered around sexual education and contains copious amounts of wit. Put on by about five or six people with a lot of skill and humor, there are eight episodes so far and I've watched them all each at least thrice. Yesterday generic-o grape pop almost flew out of my nose and I'm sure my office mates thought I was having stifled seizures.

Here's my favorite:


Also hilarious are Beatin' It, Birth Control, and Gym Class.

I'm thinking about starting a video blog, and this show has inspired me. You may see your humble blogger in all his live-action glory in the very near future.
