Help Suki & OhMiBod Raise Money for Breast Cancer Awareness

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 23:48:00 +0000

On May 15 and 16, Suki Dunham, OhMiBod's founder, will participate in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer in Boston in order to raise money to fund educational programs, accelerate research into new treatments and potential cures and provide access to care for those who need it most. Suki will join her mother-in-law and thousands of others in walking 39.3 miles over the two day challenge. (My feet hurt just thinking about it.)

So here's where we you come in. Suki has a fundraising goal of $1,800 but we're hoping you can help her blow that number out of the water by placing a $10 donation toward the cause. Not only will you be helping a great cause but you'll also be registered for some fabulous prizes.

The Grand Prize

Membership to OhMiBod's Master Beta Team - the exclusive group of sexy so and sos that tests all OhMiBod products before they go to market
OhMiBod's latest, greatest and yet to be released vibrator (coming this summer!)

For every $10 you donate, you'll receive one entry toward winning the grand prize. So if you donate $100, you'll get 10 entries. You'll also be eligible for a daily prize. Each day from April 20 until May 14, I will select one person as the winner of an OhMiBod Club Vibe. Please leave your name in the comments below, on our facebook fan page or twitter (@ohmibod), so I'll know who you are.

To donate to Suki's campaign, visit her personal page at Avon Walk for Breast Cancer and click the pink "Donate Now" button. If you prefer to write a check, contact me and I'll send you the information and a form.

Suki is pretty amped to participate in the walk on behalf of all the women in her life who have suffered with this terrible disease. It's one that has touched us all in one way or another, and we hope you'll join us in saving the ta-tas :-)

OhMiBod Giveaway Winners!

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 16:33:00 +0000

A week ago, I asked all of you to tell me what turns you on and in exchange, you'd be eligible to win one of our delicious products. As the contest got under way, I wondered if hinging participation on revealing one's turn-ons to the world was a smart thing to do, and then I remembered something -- we sell vibrators. What customer of ours would have anything to hide?

Turns out, I was right. We had a fantastic response on Facebook and Twitter, with quite a few entrants providing turn-ons that, quite frankly, I wish were my own.

So without further ado, congratulations to the following winners and runners up. Winners will get a Freestyle, while runners up will be awarded an OhMiBod Club Vibe.

Winners
Mandy Bull
Gypsy Starr Vidal
Brian Junker
Splendwhore Johnson
Adama Mwatila Mhone

Runners Up

It's Time for Another Freestyle Giveaway!

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 13:17:00 +0000

So I turned 30 yesterday -- don't worry, I'm fine. A little more crotchety (it's those damn young people and their loud music and horrible clothes. I just don't understand them anymore), but fine. Why? I've got skin like a baby's bum. In any case, moving into a new decade of life has put me in the Freestyle giving mood - maybe it's a part of that whole older/wise thing - so I have a new contest for you.

Tell me what turns you on.

It can be one thing or a zillion things. Team Edward, kisses in the rain, whips and chains, I don't care. Just give me something and be true. Consider it market research.

If you're on twitter, tweet me your answer (@ohmibod) and then:
1. Follow @ohmibod
2. Tweet this message: RT @ohmibod: Want an OhMiBod? 1. Tell me what turns you on 2. Follow @ohmibod 3. Retweet
2b (optional). Retweet often - you get 1 additional entry each time you do it

If you're on Facebook, leave your answer on the page and then:
1. Become a fan
2. Refer a friend to be a fan
2b (optional). Refer tons of friends - if you do this, let me know. You get 1 additional entry per fan you refer.

If you don't use twitter or facebook, then leave your turn on in the comments. And if you want to participate on all three forums, be my guest. It's really that simple. Contest winners will be chosen by random.org at 11:59 pm EST April 1 (no foolin). Good luck :-)

Freestyle Appears on Bravo TV's "Kell On Earth"

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 14:38:00 +0000

So Kell On Earth is a new show on Bravo that follows the daily happenings, frequent triumphs and random crises of author and fashion PR maven Kelly Cutrone. The 8 minutes (plus scores of random previews) that I've seen of The Rachel Zoe Project left me quite certain that I wanted no part of what the world's "tastemakers" had to offer but Kell On Earth left me pleasantly surprised. Cutrone is as cool as she is fierce and I'm all about her... and not just because she handled a Freestyle in a recent visit to a sex shop:

OhMiBod Super Bowl Giveaway Winners

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 17:53:00 +0000

I thought this giveaway would be a fairly easy affair but most of you made it pretty hard on me, as few entrants predicted the right winner and not one of you nailed the final score. No one was even close, to be honest, but don't blame yourselves, blame Peyton Manning.

This was supposed to be the game where he joined the echelon of true NFL QB greats - the guys who not only owned the competition during the regular season but were gods amongst men in the playoffs as well. After dominating the 2009 season, Manning spent the entire post-season wearing this "bet against me, I dare you" face and bringing the play to back it up. On top of that, he has put up no less than 28 points against Greg Williams' (NO's D-Co) defenses during his career, so even if the Colts defense couldn't stop the Saints' offensive attack, you had to assume that they wouldn't score less than 30.

Whoops.

Since no one could have predicted that Peyton Manning would shed all of his recent development and spend about 50 minutes playing the way he did when the Patriots used to hand him his ass year in and year out, we have two winners of OhMiBod's First Annual Super Bowl Giveaway:

Bryan Dupont, New Orleans 31 - 27
@lipstickncandy, New Orleans 30 - 28

Please send your shipping address to jc @ ohmibod.com and I'll get you squared away.

OhMiBod Super Bowl Giveaway

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Sun, 07 Feb 2010 00:38:00 +0000

So even with the New Orleans Saints tugging on the heartstrings of nearly every football fan outside of Indianapolis this year, most people will still only watch tomorrow's Super Bowl for the commercials. Well, I'm here to add an extra vibe of excitement to the game with OhMiBod's first annual Super Bowl Giveaway.

It's pretty simple really. Predict the game winner - either the Indianapolis Colts or the New Orleans Saints - along with the final game score and you might win a little hotness from yours truly. Extra bonus if you tell your friends :-)

Catch up with me here, at our fan page on Facebook or on Twitter (@ohmibod), and I'll get you registered. The winners will be announced on Monday!

Rush Limbaugh: The 1812 Overture Never Felt So Good

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 03:33:00 +0000

News of our placement in the GRAMMY Awards Gift Bag hit the newswire over the weekend, and since then, we've had some nice online media coverage. But you can imagine our surprise when Rush Limbaugh put us on blast while talking about the new Apple iPad on Tuesday:

It's called the OhMiBod. It is a high-tech vibrator. It plugs into an iPod which means you could plug it into an iPad because the iPad will play music. Actually any music player and it vibrates along with your favorite songs. What do you think of that, Dawn? I'll tell you, the 1812 Overture never felt so good. Just amazing what they are coming up with.

I'll be honest, a mention like this from Rush comes out of left field (see what I did there?), but true to form, he followed up with a pretty strong dig at President Obama (audio at link):

Although, I got something that could, I think, offer more pleasure more frequently than even your music. We could call it the ObaMod, and this is plug (sic) into your television and every time Obama says "I" or "me," bingo! The thing goes nuts. You're talking about 12-to-15 bingos a minute, 'cause it's all about him and what he's doing to the country. Can you imagine this?

If you're one of the kinks who owns the Head O State dildo, the ObaMod might be next on your list!

In any case, while continuing on with Tuesday's archived broadcast, we discovered that our vibrator came up in conversation again - this time, in reference to Arianna Huffington:

Ouch! After all of this, I think it's fair to say that the OhMiBod could be a real bipartisan peacemaker. Just imagine how fair, balanced and reasonable legislation could be if our policy makers took an hour to use one of our products instead of thinking up ways to screw each other.

Pretty Power Tools Had 45+ Orgasms...

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 21:50:00 +0000

... and lived to tell the tale. Seriously. Now if you're like me, you haven't had 45 orgasms this year, let alone in one night but Ms. Power Tools seems to have pulled it off. Armed with an OhMiBod Freestyle, an iTunes playlist and more endurance than a barefoot Kenyan at the Olympics, she took our wireless plaything to a new realm of sexual satisfaction again, again and again.

When I got to a song that I was really into, I would slow it down, tease myself and then when I knew that the good part was coming up, I would aim for that and end up lipsynching orgasmically... Alternately, when there was a song that I just chose for the name, in the playlist, I would be soooo not in the mood to have an orgasm to it, so it would just be an ASAP-O, and I would power in and out of that song, onto the next! AC/DC’s “You shook me all night long” came on, I had an awesome orgasm and then I finished the song by dancing on my back, looking at the ceiling and waving the vibrator around to the music, occasionally singing into it, hahaha. The time FLEW, the pleasure went right through me. The orgasms get really powerful for me once I have crossed a certain line. They sometimes are harder to attain and when they occur, I end up jumping, arching, twitching, jerking all around on the bed.

I'll let you check out the rest :-)

OhMiBod Selected for Official GRAMMY Awards Gift Bag

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 14:31:00 +0000

OhMiBod took another step toward mainstream acceptance this week when it was selected for the Official 52nd Annual GRAMMY Awards Gift Bag. (press release)

The official swag bag features the hottest and most sought after gadgets and luxury items on the market, and will be given to all performers and presenters at this year's show. This essentially means that everyone from Beyonce, Lady Gaga and the Black Eyed Peas to Prince, Justin Timberlake and U2 could be discovering new ways to feel their own music by this time next week.

I only wish I could express to you just how hard this owns!

I also wish I could express to Maxwell (in a very non-stalkerish, OhMiBod-approved note) that 1) I think he drips sex, and 2) just how much my Freestyle has helped me truly appreciate the subtle beats and delicious textures of all of his songs. Maybe I should fly out to LA for a hand delivery...

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 20:15:00 +0000

Like any good Santa, I'm a master of quid pro quo (or bribery, however you want to look at it). So the week before last, I promised an OhMiBod Freestyle wireless music vibe to a few lucky souls kind enough to share their favorite songs for doing the deed. Well the response was overwhelming, particularly on twitter, and after a long two weeks, it's time to announce our holiday winners:

LastFoolsMate

The songs you provided will form the basis of the OhMiBod Aural Pleasure List, an index of the hottest booty music around, by customers, for customers.

Win a Freestyle for Christmas

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 20:12:00 +0000

I can't believe it's December, already. It seems like yesterday that I got all put out at my mother for buying me a $250 poop green corduroy coat instead of the Wii I requested ("but you used to love corduroy!" "I did, Mom. In 1993."), and now, here we are again.

Well, these days, most of us don't have $250 to drop on anything awesome let alone circa '93 corduroy, so I'm gonna play Santa and put a Freestyle wireless music vibe under your tree. But there's a catch -- you have to tell me your favorite song(s) for doing the deed, alone and with a partner.

So catch up with me in the comments here, on twitter (@ohmibod), Facebook or even in the Ask JC section.

I'll announce the winners on the blog next week! Good luck :-)

Mystyfi Grooves Down Under with the Club Vibe

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 13:00:00 +0000

Our latest review comes from MystyFi at AIPdaily.com, the web's definitive adult entertainment publication. MystyFi lives in the Land Down Under, so when she and her girlfriend Nicole are grooving, we're snoozing. And judging by her review, the two took grooving to a new level as they tested out the Club Vibe's ambient feature along the city streets of Sydney, Australia. Here are some highlights:

My first thoughts about the Club Vibe is that it would be like most bullets, feeling very small, and having little power, at least that was my first impression before actually testing it out. However, the Club Vibe is definitely something extraordinary, and actually blew our minds away with the punch that it threw...

We tested the manual mode of the Club Vibe first, just to see what sort of power this little baby could produce from just two batteries... (it) had me writhing around almost as soon as I had touched my clit with the bullet. I was on the verge of an orgasm within minutes of starting...

For any ladies that aren’t sure what sort of bullet they would like, I would definitely recommend this one, the numerous features and vibration modes, the variable strength of the vibrations, and the fun that I have had will guarantee that you will have an amazing time with the Club Vibe. I honestly can’t wait until the next time my friends and I head out clubbing, as I will definitely be having this little baby inside me for the whole evening.

Head over to AIPdaily for the rest of the review. MystyFi not only recommends the Club Vibe to anyone interested in a bullet vibrator but also gives our feisty bad boy a 4.5 rating out of 5.

The iTunes/OhMiBod Club Vibe Community

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 13:15:00 +0000

If OhMiBod owners have anything in common it is that we are aural creatures. Music drives us, soothes us and, often, defines us. Its uncanny knack for finding a way into the secret places of our hearts and becoming an outburst of our souls truly makes it our hot, hot sex. And that's before you throw in an OhMiBod, a partner or both.

So why are we keeping these hot tracks to ourselves? See, my man and I know that the slow burning grooves of "Inertia Creeps" by Massive Attack drip sex, and by the time the song is over, so do we. But did you?

That's where the OhMiBod Club Vibe community comes in. By using the iMixes feature on iTunes, you can upload your favorite play lists and share them with everyone in the OhMiBod community.

All you have to do is:

Get iTunes
Create and save a playlist
Click the button next to the playlist or select "Create an iMix" from the file menu
Follow the instructions and include OhMiBod in your play list title
Search the iMixes for other OhMiBod playlists
Rock out...

Not so hard, right?

Now, for anyone who can't publish an iMix, we'd still love to hear from you. Different songs suit different situations and moods, so what grooves do it for you and when? After receiving enough songs from each of you, I'll start the OhMiBod Aural Pleasure List -- a constantly updated guide of delicious tunes that are well tested and approved by the OhMiBod community.

So, boys and girls, let's see what you've got!

Mely Speaks About Her New Freestyle

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 00:34:00 +0000

Mely is the author of Mely Speaks, a blog chronicling her adventures as the single mom of a precious four year old boy. She came to our attention a few weeks ago when she lamented her lack of a decent vibrator in a blog post on the now defunct Sex and the Mom. Naturally, we had to oblige, and in her post "This single mom's opinion on masturbation, sex and the OhMiBod," Mely explains just how much fun she had Freestyling to the music. Here's a morsel:

What really got me going was how the different songs stimulated me in different ways. I loved the way they teased me by vibrating harder or softer. Taking my time and working my way through five songs took my orgasm to a whole new level.

My original theory was to just play really hard techno because I thought the bass was what would do me in, but that wasn't the case at all. It was actually Britney Spears and her new single "3" that got me to climax...

... So folks, it seems I have in fact found my perfect vibrator. If only it had some lips to make out with I may never need a man again.

We have a feeling some fellas out there wouldn't be too happy about that.

Ten Twitter Followers Win Freestyles

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 01:00:00 +0000

I've lived and breathed Yankees baseball my entire life, so once we reached the World Series, I got excited and announced a World Series giveaway -- one Freestyle to one lucky OhMiBod Twitter follower if the Yanks could win a 27th title. But as the series got cranking, I quickly realized that the offer wasn't fair. What, screw you if the Philadelphia Phillies won instead?

Not cool.

So we did our Twitter followers one better by offering a Freestyle for every run scored in the final game of the series, and in Game 6, Hideki Matsui, Mark Teixeira and Ryan Howard delivered. The Yankees beat the Phillies 7 - 3 and these Twitter followers will be receiving a Freestyle in the days to come:

@DonCoyote
@LexicalJewel
@BeautifulCity
@Sakiizee
@Namelesschaos
@MsTimaB
@1JerzeeDiva
@RealmLord1
@CyberLizard
@yappyJAP
@Nabooboo (winner of our $50 iTunes gift card giveaway)

Congratulations all and thanks for participating :)

Naughtibod Lands on Cosmo's Sexiest Gifts List

noreply@blogger.com (JC) — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 16:00:00 +0000

As many of you can attest, OhMiBod Naughtibod may be small in stature but that colorful bad boy will shake your foundations. Well, someone must have tipped off the good people at Cosmopolitan because they've placed the Naughtibod on their list of Sexiest Gifts Ever.

Rock on is right. The Naughti is the only pleasure product on Cosmo's 20 item superlative list, making it the most scintillating gift on the market for the holiday season. So do us a favor and check lists. Hell, check em twice. Find out who needs to add a little more naughty to their nice and come back to see us.

Nitebyrd DJ's Her Own Orgasm

noreply@blogger.com (Brian - OhMiBod) — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 23:31:00 +0000

So we have a hot new review from Nitebyrd at A Dust Bunny in the Wind. It seems Ms. Byrd is on one quest these days - to unearth the artist, cynic and free spirit that have been long buried in her soul or die trying. After checking out her review of OhMiBod's Freestyle, I think it's fair to say she's well on her way to accomplishing her goals. Here's a taste:

I put in my ear buds, cranked up the volume and inserted the Freestyle into my very anxious pussy. My fucking Chad Kroeger fantasy started with "Burn It to the Ground" and continued through "S.E.X." I may never actually fuck Chad but using the Freestyle that hit my g-spot with delicious intensity with every note of the music, is just about the next best thing. I'm not easily orgasmic and love to have my clit stimulated, REALLY stimulated – the Freestyle and my iPod had my clit totally, completely satisfied with pounding, tickling, rumbling vibrations. Somewhere during the middle of "Light My Fire," I passed over to orgasm Valhalla and believe I touched the face of Jim Morrison.

Head over to Ms. Byrd's nest and check out the rest of her delicious review.

Sexpert Lexi B Gets Down with Freestyle

noreply@blogger.com (Suki) — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 01:46:00 +0000

The latest Freestyle review comes from Sexpert Lexi B of Vibrator Reviews and Sexy Toy News. Now, Lexi reviews sex toys for a living, which might be in the best jobs on the planet Earth after dolphin trainer, beer tester and masseuse on a cruise.

Lexi B. doesn't give us your typical review, but in this case, that's a good thing. Here's a snippet of the Orgasmic Adventures of Gadget Girl and the Freestyle:

My vajay jay, was rocking and tocking and clocking to every beat. Pulse-pounding, mind numbing, tingling, head blowing orgasms-inducing power unlike any other toy I've ever tested. My hips were moving and girating like never before... I ended my orgasmic workout with a slow wind to Maxwell's "Til the Cops Come Knockin," and his music already makes you wanna wet your panties. Just imagine his raspy, sultry voice in your ears while the Freestyle is pulsating to every beat inside you?!
Grab your popcorn and head over to Vibrator Reviews and read Lexi B's review in full. I promise - you won't regret it.

Club Vibe rocks the dance floor at WMC 09

noreply@blogger.com (Suki) — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 15:05:00 +0000

OhMiBod released Club Vibe at WMC (World Music Conference) in Miami and set the dance floor on fire. Club Vibe is a wearable bullet that vibrates to the music around you, perfect for any nightclub or concert.

Not only does Club Vibe vibrate to ambient sound, but it also functions like the rest of our music vibes and will vibrate to the music on your iPod, iPhone or other mp3 player. It also has a manual mode and there are 7 exciting pre-set vibration patterns to choose from.

Club Vibe’s design elements include a small black controller with hot pink accents (roughly the size of a pager) and hot pink bullet with a velvety finish. The product also comes with a black lace thong, a velvet privacy pouch for storage and a set of AAA batteries. What more could you ask for! Oh...and Club Vibe retails for only $49. Check it out.

OhMiBod in Second Life

noreply@blogger.com (MicroArts Creative Agency) — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 15:36:00 +0000

Brian and Suki ventured out to L.A. for the Second Life and OhMiBod HUD Launch Party this past Saturday. Branching into the world of teledildonics, OhMiBod and Stroker Serpentine of Eros have created a Head's Up Display allowing Second Lifers to virtually control the patterns and intensity of an OhMiBod connected to the computer of their online playmate. I can't wait to dive into Second Life with a sexy avatar and try this bad boy out!

For a bit more about the technology and Second Life view Regina Lynn's Sex Rev 2.0 and SL 2 RL Lover's Blog.
