Gearing Up Videos - YouTube Site Removed By Google

As some of you may have discovered, the YouTube page associated with Jockstrap Junction has been removed by Google, owner of YouTube.  This is part of an ongoing battle I seem to be having with Google, and in some ways I understand their position with respect to the YouTube site.  At the present time, I do not have any plans to either contest what Google has done, or to try to remake the YouTube site over in a way that might be acceptable.  My attempts to do so with Picasa were never even addressed by anyone at Google, and as a result, I lost hundreds of photos and images, many of them of myself, to Google.

It does seem to me, however, that Google has, recently, taken an extremely conservative stance with respect to at least some alleged pornographic content on its services.  Yet, other Blogger blogs which are arguably far more obscene and pornographic are left alone.  If there is some methodology on Google's part, I would like to know what it is.

I fear that the Internet's freedom and open-ness is retracting a bit in the area of adult information, services and multi-media content.  I am troubled by the .XXX domain extensions, Google's actions, and am informed that Facebook takes down any page even referencing the term "bareback."  For now, it remains to be seen what or how far these developments will go.  In the meantime, I will let you all know what video-related service or site (or combination) will take the place of the YouTube site.

New Blogs Of Interest - Guys At The Beach, Best Bulges and Age of Jockstrap

I have come across a few new blogs that I am adding to our Undergear Blogroll and which are well worth checking out.  Notably, these are all Tumblogs.  I don't know if that signifies a movement toward Tumblr, or merely that I have become completely addicted to it.  Either way, there are some great sites over at Tumblr. 

Don't get me wrong - I actually love Blogger, and don't think Tumblr is a completely satisfactory substitute for Google's product.  It is truly unfortunate that Google continues, apparently, to take down gay site after gay site, disproportionately to straight sites.  This will drive us bloggers to other service providers in increasing numbers.

At any rate, the first new site I am adding to the Blogroll is Guys at the Beach.  This is mostly naked men at the beach, as opposed to guys in undergear.  However, there are regular jock and swimsuit pics.  Moreover, the quality of the pics is really great, so I felt that it was a worthwhile addition.

The second site is Best Bulges.  Its name basically says it all.  If you are into big baskets and monster cocks bulging at the seams, this site is for you.  One word of warning - there seem to be a lot of postings on this site, so keep an eye on your RSS feeds, etc.

The third site is Age of Jockstrap.  Again, the name tells you right up front that this is a site that is almost 100% devoted to the jockstrap.  Like Best Bulges, it also has a lot of postings, but they are all great quality.

If you have a site you would like to recommend, regardless of whether it is on Blogger or elsewhere, please let me know and I will review it.
