Dawson from Corbin Fisher                                           Kurt from Sean Cody

  We're always interested in little interesting facts & figures, trivia if you will, and in recent weeks we've found quite few at the websites that we follow. Nothing earth-shattering mind you. Just a few things that we've paid attention to.

  Awhile ago we mentioned that Corbin Fisher had released its 1000th video --a figure that we arrived at by adding the number of videos at both CF sites, the gay Amateur College Men & straight/bi Amateur College Sex. Since most of you probably only follow the guy-on-guy action at Amateur College Men you might not think that this was an accurate milestone. For you sticklers Amateur College Men DID reach a milestone this week--#800. It was a very hot & sexy scene with Corbin Fisher fave Dawson and Levi, the first new model for 2010. We really like Levi because he has this "oh boy, more sex!" enthusiasm that not every guy has. We hope it lasts --and that Levi sticks around too. By the way, did you know that with this week's video Dawson became the American College Men champ for number of video appearances? Yep, at 58 videos he's now surpassed super hot Lucas. AND, if you add in Dawson's Amateur College Sex appearances and his bonus videos his Corbin Fisher total is over 90! 

              
                                              Harley tops Kurt on video....for now

 On the other Sean Cody really is getting close to that huge milestone of 1000 videos, counting the "Auditions" series (which feature at least 3 guys per video). In a little over a month #1000 will hit the site without as many longterm performers like Corbin Fisher or Randy Blue or as many prolific guys. That said current "most popular" guy Kurt  (at least he's popular here at Jack Manly!) is now tied with Harley for the most number of total videos (29). However, we're counting "behind the scenes" videos so Harley still holds the record for now but if Kurt sticks around he may surpass him yet. As you recall Harley has retired from gay porn but is still around as model Simon Dexter and seems to remain on good terms with Sean Cody. So, with number 1000 approaching we hope Sean Cody does something special like bringing him or another favorite model back for the anniversary.  It's possible that it's already been filmed and special or not we've got a special tribute to the site coming up.

 While we're on the subject of dates on videos we've noticed that many of the sites are releasing their videos much closer to the original production dates. Take a look at Suite 703, Drake Rock, Dominic Ford, & Real Guys Exposed and you'll see what we mean. In some cases there have been videos filmed, edited & posted within a week of filming! How do we know? Well, did you know if you look at the beginning or the end of many online videos you'll find the production dates included? Most of the top established sites still film many videos well in advance of their being released especially and stagger them. This is especially true for models/performers who film a run of videos over a period of a few days. 

                 
                                                     Frat Men on parade

  Lastly we all know that redesigning a website or changing it around is an invaluable marketing tool and we've noticed several sites doing just that ---and more to follow: 

  Frat Men has slightly altered its design & offers a bit more preview material. Did you know that Frat Men also offers DVDs of their videos? hottest guys from around the country, You'll see the link in the preview of the site and it's worth a look.

  Drake Rock continues to improve its layout & site tour and more importantly we are really loving the guys that have been showing up here. There are some very prominent "it" guys here such as Trent Diesel, Jayden Grey, Brandon Lewis, Drew Cutler, Cameron Adams, etc. Plus, there are new faces that we know you're going to be hearing about--Ocelot, Tony Douglas, Shawn Lane, real brothers Jay & Ray Daniels, and Ricky Martinez (who is in the cast of the upcoming Tales of the Arabian Nights). Drake Rock has always had a good eye for picking models which is one of many reasons why we love this site.

 Next Door Studios has totally revamped the look of all its sites one by one and now they reflect the high quality HD videos & superb photos that you'll find there. The last to get the redesign is Next Door Hook-Ups but so far Tommy D, Cody Cummings,Mason Wyler, Next Door Buddies,& Next Door Male, as well as company-related sites Colt Studios & Visconti Triplets have gotten the deluxe treatment. 

  Dominic Ford & Real Guys Exposed both have site changes coming and since we're keeping an eye on both these sites already it will be easy to keep you posted. Then again, we may not have to do anything of the kind. If you aren't following two of our favorite sites of the last year or so you're really missing out.
