possibility for video demonstrations?

Contributor: Machina Machina
I really love how interactive the EF site is. It's by far the most informative adult site I've ever come across. The one thing I would really love to see on here are some video demonstrations. My favorite reviews are often off-site reviews that include video demonstrations of the toy. This allows me to visualize the actual size and power of the toy, as well as give me a better understanding of how it's used. Is there any possibility EF will either allow video uploads by verified reviewers or site employees at any time in the future? Is this something others would like to see as well?

Yeah i would, just actually started another discussion about the same thing. I'm interested in the Silicone flexi-power rod but want to see the power behind it.

Some people used to do some videos on the blog and I think that's fallen by the wayside lately. So sad.

That was Essin Em. When she left her position the videos stopped and I think they were a really great part of the EF blog.. the blog seems to have been abandoned and occasionally used to promote interviews with adult stars.

I know as a buyer, I love videos. It helps to see a product and hear a product. Sometimes pictures can capture the essence of a toy however, actually seeing it in someones hands and being able to hear the buzzing is an amazing element.

I do video reviews whenever the mood strikes me and I'd love to be able to upload them somewhere other than vimeo- an on site uploader could be great for the program. I realize that I just do videos with my hands and I feel that it's kind of old hat- I want to be more interactive with my v-reviews but until I fix this clunker pc, I'm shit outta luck.

If EF brought back videos on the community blog I personally would love it. I don't know who on staff they have to sit down and talk about the new toys but it would be great for us to have that feature back.

Essin Em used to talk with some other people, too, I recall.. But I don't know who they were exactly.

But I definitely agree with you. Not even a video review but just video intros or something? A comparison of some similar products. A Q&A session. So on and so forth.

I would so love to see that or do that. It would be neat to have similar items compared and contrasted side by side. It would be great to see textures, motion, everything!

OK, guys! We hear you. Will work to bring videos back.
@Adriana Ravenlust: The comparative product discussions are in the works already and will be released soon, although not in the video format.

I know right? I would love to see comparison videos for similar items-- such as the we-vibe, delight, and rock chick. I think a visual demonstration of the differences in power, shape, & functions would make it much easier to decide on what product may be best for you.

It would also bring the feeling of going into a sex shop & getting to try different products in person to your internet...which would be great because I love the one on one personal experience of going into a sex store, but I hate their how they usually have small selections & crappy overpriced products.
