Nude Bloggers Playboy Contest - Which Blogging Chick Do You Most Want to See Naked?

Playboy Naked Bloggers

Recently two of the Internet’s loveliest personalities, Xeni Jardin of Boing Boing and sex columnist Violet Blue, had a very public row in the blogosphere when Jardin removed every reference to Blue from public view on her site, totaling around 70 posts.

As the New York Times notes, the fracas raised the issue of whether unpublishing posts on a popular blog (currently there are 1,600-plus comments on the decision) is something a blogger has a right to do.

We’ll, Playboy got a bit more excited when they saw old pics of the pair canoodling on Valleywag. Two sexy, smart, web-savvy women — they couldn’t think of anything hotter.

This is perhaps the first day, I relish being a little less known. The last thing I want to do is flash all of you my boobs. [heh]

VOTE NOW for the most click-worthy candidate to pose for Playboy.com.

UPDATE (James):Â Apparently, Sarah Lacy is getting quite a bit of traffic out of the whole thing proving, as if anyone still doubted it, that sex sells.

I’ve had one of the biggest traffic days in months, post the whole Playboy mention. Of course, anyone coming here looking for sexy photos was probably disappointed to read about nothing but my book tour!

I’m a little surprised people have balked so much at the Playboy thing. Clearly, I would never consider actually posing nude and assume most of the girls on the list wouldn’t either. (No, TechCrunch commenters, not even for a lot of money. Seriously, what is wrong with men? Just because they’ll get naked at the drop of a hat they think it’s somehow irresistible?) But that’s not all Playboy is about either. Loads of politicians, celebrities, business people have been interviewed and featured in Playboy before, even if no one really reads it for the articles.

She is, incidentally, wearing clothing in all photos displayed on the site.
