I wrote a reply to a post in another thread about finding new girls but it's long and I thought maybe it would be worthy of it's own thread. I'd like other's opinions on this if you don't mind.

Interesting. This is something I've been thinking about myself. When I started, only 3+ years ago, a girl could do, oh...I don't know, +10-15 scenes, make herself some money and none of her friends would have a clue what she's been doing as long as she kept her mouth shut. Heck, look at that Zoey Zane girl. I wasn't around then but if I understand correctly, she was a pretty big name in the industry and yet her family and friends had no clue.
Now, with tube sites demanding two to 50 minute videos, with bandwidth so cheap that a surfer is provided thousands of hours of free porn with just the click of the mouse and with the internet being a source of providing information internationally and fast, it seems more girls are getting outed. In my experience, new girls have become harder to find just over the last few months. Most likely a direct result of Craigslist pulling Adult Gigs and similar areas. Which leads me to believe that new girls are going to continue to become harder and harder to find as they begin to realize that they can no longer assume they will remain anonymous. Especially with their god-awful tattoos. :-)
Girl does porn, 5 min clip goes on tube site, old boyfriend or BFF finds it, posts link on his/her facebook profile, life as she knows it is over. :-(
Sure, there will be the Jim Gunn's of the world who will always have a fresh inflow of new girls. But IMHO, overall, it has and will continue to become more difficult and it concerns me.
Only once have I seen a girl's real name used in pushing her content and that upset me pretty badly. Granted, she was, and probably still is, a bitch. Regardless, no matter what a girl's done in adult, I think it's really really bad to reg her real name as a domain name and put her content or links to her content on it. Are we really that desperate for sales that we're trying to market her videos to 100 or so of her family and friends?
This girl now has a college degree and is in the workforce. To this day, I google this girl's real name every few months just to see what's going on. I can tell she's trying to get the links using her real name down as links occasionally go dead but still, that would just SUCK for a young girl trying to make it in the corporate world knowing anyone who googles her name can watch her do a li'l suck n fuck.
Ugh, I can get pretty long-winded when I want to. :-) Paul's statement just reminded me of what I've been thinking about lately so I thought I'd opine about it.
Has is been harder for you to find new girls? Do you think that Facebook and other social networking sites will make it harder to find new girls? Or perhaps easier? Should I give a shit if they get outed? Thoughts?
