I am aware that there are issues with the club listings (and possibly other areas of the site) and we are working on it. I have a programmer that will hopefully be helping us get things fixed up very shortly (which means that upgrades are coming and some downtime - although I doubt it will be much and may not even be noticeable) is possible.

The Swing Wife interviewed me a couple of weeks ago for their podcast and it's now posted on their website (or Itunes).

We talk about The Swingers Board, how it started, & how awesome of the posters are here, The Swinger Manual and our general experiences and thoughts about swinging.

I've had several questions about the number of new threads that link back to various swinger blogs and podcasts. A few weeks ago I created a new forum called "Swinger Blogs & Podcasts Feeds [External Links]" - I created a thread explaining this when the forum was set up: "About the Swinger Blogs & Podcasts forum". You will see there that the threads created in that forum are done so automatically.

These threads are not spam. They are blogs/podcasts related to swinging that are posted by mutual agreement between this site and the blog/podcast. This is mutually beneficial to both sites as well as to the community as it allows everyone easier access to a broader variety of information and resources.

These posts will ALWAYS be in the single forum labeled "Swinger Blogs & Podcasts", therefore if you wish to avoid them you may easily identify them and do so. I would suggest that if a topic catches your eye that you check it out and then come back here and share your thoughts on it.

I realize this is a shift from what you are used to, with seeing pretty much no links in the forums. However, as the internet and the community changes, we have to grow with it and find different ways to work together to keep a balance. Having the automated forum allows the bloggers to share their info without doing so in a spammy way, and it allows you to know upfront what the post will involve before you open it.

Pierre Silber is offering their 3 Free Panties promo again. No Purchase Necessary, just tell them your size and they will randomly select 3 pairs for you. They did this last year and quite a few of us took advantage of the deal and ended up with some sexy panties.

Of course, if you find some things you like while you are there they are also offering 20% Off Any Purchase over $150.

I'm not sure how long this deal will last, so I'd suggest jumping on it pretty quick.

Click Here and you should see the Promo on the right hand side of the page. You do have to pay shipping, but if you select "USPS Priority" It should only be about $8 (which is still a pretty good deal).

SwingerZoneCentral has offered us a great giveaway for the month of May. Anyone who joins this month will be entered to win a FREE 1 Year Membership.

I, personally, am loving this site (would love it more if more of our locals were there). It seems to have a really good balance between the standard Swinger Profile sites and the social networking aspects. This is definitely a site that I feel is worth checking out and encouraging your friends to join. If you are already a member there, share your thoughts here. If you aren't already a member there, go join and then share your thoughts on what you find. It's free to join initially and they give you a free 1 month trial to check things out and see what you think.

Just saw this come across Twitter. I haven't read it and therefore can't say if it's any good, but they said it would be available for free tomorrow (Monday, April 29).
