I think part of my issue with Self Desire.com is the premise, or at least the premise I was expecting. The splash page describes it as having "in depth interview(s) with...co-eds of porn." I didn't find much of that here. What this site basically consists of are videos (with accompanying photosets) of girls teasing and playing with themselves. There is some occasional banter with the cameraman, and a few instances where questions are asked of the model. In depth interview? I watched 12 of the 30 scenes and didn't see anything like that.
I'll come back to that, but let's talk about what's good here, because there is a lot to like. The layout and user interface is pretty good. Content is easy to find (maybe that's because there are only 30 scenes), and it's all well laid-out, with multiple viewing options. The scenes can be viewed in full, or you can choose by segment, a "best of" option, and a few others. This was nicely done.
Technically, it's also well done. Video streams in flash or wmv, and downloads are available in multiple options. It's all also available via mobile device. Everything loads and plays really quickly, and resolution is crisp (especially the high def option...I mean REALLY crisp. I think I could see pores on these girls' faces). Production values on the videos are top notch, with great lighting and editing..
And the talent is outstanding. They've found some super hot girls, going for the young, cute, tight look here. There are no over-the-top porn bimbos. These girls are all 18-23, with small-medium sized breasts, and thin, tight bodies. Tattoos are at a minimum (or absent)...if you like the girl next door, this is it.
All of that is fantastic, and even the action itself is not bad (but not great either). However, I was expecting a sort of "different" site here, one that would pull back the curtain and let us hear a porn babe talk about herself. That's not here.
