LAS VEGAS -- Twitter-tracking PornStarTweet.com has now topped 100 porn stars since its launch less than two weeks ago.
The hundredth porn star to be added was AVN Live host and Co-ed Confidential star Michelle Maylene. Lexi Love took PornStarTweet.com over the 100 mark.
The site officially launched on February 23, following the daily lives of 44 porn stars and has monitored some 13,343 individual tweets so far.
Other additions to the tweet-tracking list include Flower Tucci, Taryn Thomas, Demi Delia, Lisa Ann, Courtney Cummz and male star Brandon Iron.
"This simply demonstrates the power of Twitter and the excitement it generates!" said PornStarTweet CEO Pete Housley. "When we started this project we located and started tracking 17 porn stars. In the past 10 days we've not just located more stars, but many more are joining Twitter and becoming addicted right along with the rest of the country. We're watching Rachel Starr, Lexi Love, Ashlynn Brooke and many others take their first baby steps into the Twitter world, and it's a ton of fun. We've also expanded our listing to include male, gay and transgender performers; in fact, we added the amazing Wendy Williams just today. We would love to see this number double, triple or beyond in the next few weeks -- we urge all members of the adult industry to join the 'Twitterati.'"
"We feel confident that we have the most comprehensive list of porn stars using Twitter anywhere on the Web. The stars seem to love this site and the exposure it's giving them," said webmistress Alyss Heart. "We get tons of personal messages from Brooke Haven who's sporting a cool new tattoo, first seen only on Twitter and PornStarTweet.com, and a lot of the other stars who say they're getting great feedback and traffic from us. However, we're most excited by the user response helping us locate these stars among the thousands of people joining Twitter and tweeting every day -- a big thank you to BackOutVideo ."
PornStarTweet has added photo-attachment thumbnails, as well as a "Photos Only" option, allowing users to view the hundreds of photos posted daily by Porn Stars on Twitter.
"We're adding new functionality and increasing capacity to handle the traffic. The response from the adult business community has been great. We are proud to now have a developing relationship with AdultDVDEmpire as a sponsor, great blog write-ups on Fleshbot and many other sites," Housley said. "We're all watching Jon Stewart on Comedy Central's The Daily Show, CNN -- even Fox News and every major media outlet talk about congressional use of Twitter -- so it's awesome to see a great piece of technology allow us to communicate with porn stars and Congress at the same time. We don't know how big this thing can get."
The service is available at PornStarTweet.com and can be followed on Twitter's PornStarTweet page. An RSS feed is also available for syndication.
