Remember several months ago when a video popped up online showing a wondrously nude Erin Andrews doing butt flexes in her hotel room? I sure do.
As boner inducing as that video was (not that I ever saw it or anything), it was also illegal as hell and the man behind the video has plead not guilty to interstate stalking in the case. Authorities believe that a 48 year old creepy obsessed dude named Michael Barrett rented hotel rooms next to Erin Andrews on three separate occasions last year and altered the peepholes to film the beauty.
Yesterday FBI agents served search warrants to both Yahoo Inc. and Google Inc., in part to make Yahoo turn over a video of another nude woman that was posted in June to a Flikr account (Yahoo owns Flikr) possibly owned by Barrett.
I hope they nail this guy to the wall, personally. I’m all for hot naked chicks steaming up my monitor, but stalking and illegally videotaping a woman is going way too far. To me it’s a crime that is nearly as serious as rape, which hopefully Michael Barrett will learn all about if he goes to prison.

Twitter’s not the only social platform to have a celebrity fetish. Google is bringing out its inner obsession with celeb users by launching iGoogle Showcase, which allows you to see and share the homepages of your favorite celebs.
The current site showcases iGoogle homepages from celebs such as Rachael Ray, Al Gore, and Katie Couric. The showcase also highlights web celebs like Kevin Rose, Arianna Huffington, and Seth Godin.
The iGoogle Showcase lets you copy your favorite celeb’s iGoogle page to your own, or browse through the collection and choose different gadgets and themes to include from varying pages. Some celebs have created customized gadgets that you can embed.
For example, Ryan Seacrest’s gadget lets you keep up with all the latest entertainment news. Donald Trump’s gadget offers advice to entrepreneurs, Martha Stewart shares recipes and tips, and Anderson Cooper delivers headline news and extras from his CNN show AC360.
iGoogle also recently added video game themes, more social gadgets and may be releasing a new, more social version.
