College Sex Gossip No Longer Limited to Text Messages, Facebook

JuicyCampus.com this week becomes the latest Internet fad for the media to obsess over. In an AP story that's getting plenty of pick up, the college-focused website, which posts gossip about students' sex lives, is already seeing its traffic spike from the coverage. (Visitors the site today might find it unreachable.)

From freshman to seniors, Duke, Cornell, and UCLA campuses are all targets for the nasty comments, which in all likelihood will start popping up next to Google searches for students' names.

But leave it to the meta-concerned MSM to ruin the party: What should normally be a rallying point around First Amendment rights is instead actually drawing criticism from college newspaper editorials. And student leaders!

Founder Matt Ivester is being pleaded with to take the site down. DontDateHimGirl.com, meanwhile, remains a revered public service.

The press around JuicyCampus is crazy. I started a website a lot like JuicyCampus only better around the same time. On GossipReport.com, people can gossip anonymously about anyone, but there are tools in place allowing users to rate the gossip as true or lies, and the authors can be rated too. If the authors get a bad rating over and ovr, they get kicked off the site. If the gossip gets rated as trash (lies/nastiness/etc.) then it drops off the site. That's the big difference between JuicyCampus and GossipReport.com - GossipReport.com serves a purpose in society! Like the popularity of these sites show, EVERYONE gossips. It's someting that everyone loves to do whether they admit it or not. GossipReport.com is essentially collecting social history on people. Someday some girl will be saved from a date with a rapist or a psycho thanks to Gossip Report! JuicyCampus is not serving anything for anyone except being a place to be mean.
