Cabana 18 Goes Live at Phoenix Forum

PHOENIX — SmashBucks’ Cabana 18 live streaming Internet webcast makes its Phoenix Forum debut at the webmaster show March 29-31. Mr. Skin Marketing Director Derek Meklir will host all three days of the broadcast, which features fun interviews with industry leaders, porn stars and models.

Camz.com powers Cabana 18’s live streaming technology.

Cabana 18 is intended to give webmasters and surfers an inside look at the online adult entertainment industry through the eyes of its members at various tradeshows and industry events, SmashBucks spokeswoman Harley Girl said.

The show’s live broadcast made its debut in 2005 at the Cybernet Expo in San Diego and also has filmed at the Internext shows in Miami and Las Vegas.

Harley Girl said Meklir was a natural host from the beginning when he replaced Vanilla DeVille, who couldn’t make the gig.

“We were working hard trying to conduct interviews and run the broadcast when Derek stopped by for an interview with us,” Harley Girl said. “He sat down and just had this natural touch for getting people to talk and made them so comfortable while they were in front of the camera. Not to mention he is one of the funniest guys I’ve ever met. Derek was meant to be the Cabana 18 host right from the beginning.”

Past guests at Cabana 18 have included Sunny Leone, Aria Giovanni and Martina Warren.

WorldWideContent.com, Python.com, SmashBucks.com, RedlightRevenue.com, JupiterHosting.com and MediaConductor.com are sponsoring the Cabana 18 festivities.
