That said, a reader swears that prominent Google VP Marissa Mayer and co-founder Sergey Brin are dating, and have been for at least six months.

While such a corporate pairing would be juicy, it's most definitely bull — Sergey was spotted with girlfriend and Googler Anne Wojcicki at Burning Man in August.

Valleywag broke the news (sure, "everyone who's anyone" knew it but real people didn't) this February that Mayer's old boyfriend was Google's other cofounder, the nerdier and supposedly less handsome Larry Page. At one point, Mayer allegedly dragged Larry in front of Google staff and made him announce that they were a couple.

Hope you find that leaker, Google.

Update: Someone called Sergey, from a credible email address, writes in: This is not true for me and Marissa.

Schmidt blocked photos of he and his wife while up at his new $16million home in Nantucket. Maybe his girlfriend Marcy Simon would be upset as she waited in the house he recently purchased for her in New York's Fire Island for only $1million. He was a frequent visitor out in Fire Island last year but he has not been seen there yet this summer. All leads to credence that he doesn't want to upset the PR diva.

Tipster 2 says:

Good posting yesterday regarding Eric Schmidt and not allowing photos of he and his wife. Probably was real sensitive about it as he is away in France for the week with his girlfriend Marcy Simon for her annual birthday trip with him. Last year is was Lake Como, Italy.

In related news, Valleywag needs an agent who can visit the Redwood City courthouse. E-mail tips@valleywag.com to volunteer.

So get this. First, a 14-year-old girl sued MySpace because she met a 19-year-old on the site who pretended to be in high school. This is, of course, MySpace's fault.

Now, the 19-year-old (college student Pete Solis) is countersuing — also against Myspace — because the girl pretended she was 15. "He's been, in effect, just as much a victim — if not more," says his lawyer. Solis is facing felony charges of sexual assault, which would be just the same if the girl was 15. This is, of course, MySpace's fault.

The couple in question met online, lied to each other, met in person for burgers, went to a movie, and then fooled around in Pete's back seat. This is all, of course, MySpace's fault. And the lovers' pain can only be assuaged with millions and millions of Rupert Murdoch's dollars.

• First one's a winner: "I prefer guys in tech because I've never met a dumb one and love technology, which means I'm cool with computer pieces all over." This 25-year-old wants a guy from 25 to 35.
• A 31-year-old software engineer throws two dogs into the deal. She just returned from the Netherlands, and she's a wine, cheese, and crying-at-the-movies fan. And she's utterly selling herself short as "slightly cute."

"My startup project is my dream and I am working towards my dream and I know my dream is going to come true soon. My second dream to have loving soulmate and life partner with whom I want to be until end of this lifetime."
• If this next one's sense of humor doesn't get you hot, don't worry — he just wants something platonic. "I always give things a chance to grow on me, INCLUDING moss, because I'm be a fungi to be with."
• Today's charity case could really use a friend on Oracle Parkway in Redwood City. In the last week, this gentleman's posted two separate missed connections, three appeals in the section called Casual Encounters. Reward his hard work — he just wants an IM/e-mail flirt partner.

Well, according to this tip, Eric could beat both of them to "I do."

Google CEO Eric Schmidt was spotted with his girlfriend Marcy Simon on Saturday on the beach in the French Riviera with Marcy sporting a huge yellow diamond engagement ring. I guess he actually is divorced and is readying for a long-term relationship.

Chances are, that's President Marcy Simon of PR and media consulting firm WCTV. Aha, Eric wasn't just looking for love. The efficient exec knows that now he can score free advice to prop up Google's flimsy PR arm. (And maybe throw in some private public speaking lessons.)

Did a bit of math today and am willing to share anonymously:

1. Pre 2006:
a) circulating gossip pertaining Google execs
- Sergey Brin shares rides to work. Delivered by the matrimony quasi sister-in-law
- Larry Page made a printer out of Lego. At the age of 9.

b) juicy factoids pertaining Google execs not made public
- Larry Page dating Marissa Meyers
- the founders' harem of PAs (see flickr and comments around)

2. Come 2006:
1. The Larry Page, Marissa Meyer hot office affair former levels of collegiality finally revealed. By none other than the M&M herself.
2. Excruciatingly juicy details of said affair come to light: M&M used to time Larry Page with a metronome.
3. Few months within new relationship, new Larry Page girlfriend (if you have doubts: far right, with the bottle) splashed all over the tabloids.
4. Staged, but offending (for the parties involved) at the same time jet posing of Larry Page and exec girlfriend. Staged, but coy leaking of said pictures. Blamethrower aimed at other exec girlfriend. Oh, the drama!
5. Sergey Brin feeling slightly offended of all the attention directed to fellow co-founder. Larry Page offers a joint stunt - "We are getting married!" No, not to each other, although that might be an option, if the stocks dip low. As in "Hollywood aging star posing for Playboy" desperation.
6. Sergey Brin takes the wheel in his own two hands: mixes drugs, outrageous amounts of money, young cuties and sex in the same party-news. Comes out feeling sorry for himself. So, do we.

Few personal observations and unanswered questions:
- Eric Schmidt, the one who will most likely be pointed out as the sleazy one in a routine line-up including the founders, comes unscathed as a lamb. (I am not in any way suggesting that he is, simply implying that Sergey and Larry still have boyish charms.) Is that whole thing a personal vendetta? Was it Larry and Sergey who dug out Eric's personal data last year and tipped CNET, so that he needs to retaliate?
- Maybe the Google founders joined the super-exclusive, at_least_5_billions_net_worth, year 2K complacent, web 2.0 gossip-a-month club "Chez Hilton"?
- Or maybe, just maybe, gossip and celebrity rumors constituted the majority of searches on Google in the past years, so the Google's PR machine steered clear of the land of flowers, bunnies, shared car-rides and "don't be evil" lullabies?
- Is Valleywag arousing (compare number of comments on the gossipy news as opposed to regular ones) its own readership by throwing in sex and scandals. Amidst the serious journalism, that is.

Of, course I may be all wrong. It may as well be a terrible misunderstanding. But until proven wrong, am eagerly anticipating the next twists on the Google soap opera.

Newmark calls his girlfriend the Girlfriend, as if he's never had one before. ("I got the Girlfriend tickets for that show, which gave the Boyfriend good Boyfriend points," he confides.) Eileen Whelpley, aka the Girlfriend, is a technical designer for Gap and a talented flamenco dancer. She hates being called the Girlfriend and is unafraid to tell Newmark so - or me. She insists her correct name is used in this piece.

By the way, Craig's proud of Eileen's flamenco skills — he hasn't seriously danced ever since ballet lessons landed him in the hospital.

In any case, sounds like this girl deserves a "Tom is NOT my friend" tee. The story, passed through another boy:

So, I hooked up last week with this half-Asian very hot Suicide Girl on - where else - MySpace.

Post-dirty sex, she's telling me "Tom from MySpace really liked that picture of my ass. He wrote me last month (post bad press) and told me he wants to 'hit my ass.' He offered to fly me to LA, but —"

Discover Tom's caveat after the jump.

"— he'd only pay for half the flight as the last girl who he flew to LA was hooking up with other guys in LA while he was at work."

Thus, without a full free ticket, she passed on his offer of cut-rate anal.

So, if you're only getting some of the trim (or ass as the case may be), you should only pay for half the flight?

And this is - as well as post bad press - post multi-million dollar "extra retention bonus."

Classic.

Tom's alleged excuse about "the last girl" sounds sketchy. Hard to believe a girl tapping Tom Anderson would need more LA hotties to keep her satisfied — unless this was during Tom's emo phase.

How do you break the 12-photo rule and get 51 snaps on MySpace? Step 1: Date Tom Anderson.

MySpace Tom's secret Real Friends list is still a mystery, but here's one girl who's definitely on it. Tiffany Chao ( is just 22 (to Tom's 30) and fits Tom's rumored demographic just fine. Judging by their photos and comments, they're a real hot item. They headed out to Chichen Itza together, and they hang out on Tom's stomping grounds in L.A. And when Tiffany posted a snap of her and Joaquin Phoenix (or at least a wax figure of Jo), Tom got defensive: "he is 7 feet tall, but i'm 7'1,"" he commented from his secondary friends-only profile.

But one detail really made me perk up: Tiffany lists herself as "single." Either Tom's due for a lot of MySpace drama, or he's still single too — which means you could hook up with the Myspace Mastah and get your own 51-picture profile.

Tiffany [MySpace profile]

I know Lucy (relative) - and she does not think that Larry is responsible for the ring as they have no plans to becoming engaged anytime soon. Sergey isnt engaged either. Now maybe both women will be surprised with rings they don't expect?

It's hard to believe that as paranoid as Larry is about privacy that he would allow himself to look at rings in front of other people.

Again, it's your call whether this is a true relative, or an Adsense sales rep with a rich fantasy life.

Earlier rock-buying rumors: Larry Page is still shopping for rings [Valleywag]
It all started here: Which Google guy got engaged? [Valleywag]
More Larry rumor-quashing: Did Sergey Brin get engaged? [Valleywag]

Wanna know the reason MySpace is so seedy? Before MySpace, Tom Anderson ran a porn site called TeamAsian.com. The first profiles were of the asian girls he used to photograph and put on his site.

Other rumors have floated around that Tom keeps a second profile to collect Asian girls as friends. (Gee, another white boy in tech who's crazy for Asian girls, who'd have thought?)

Not that there's anything wrong with all this — just that Tom may as well 'fess up. He's already made his millions, what's the worst that could happen?

Larry has recently been looking at girl's engagement rings at meetings, rather than paying attention. Larry is not a jewelry guy, so either he is thinking of buying De Beers, or he could be thinking about getting engaged.

Lucy Southworth is my TA for a class I am taking at Stanford. I have looked in class and there is no hint of a ring (believe me I have checked). Must be Sergey and Anne...

¬ San Jose software engineer seeks ticklish Asian beauty (especially ticklish on the feet, please).
¬ Startup co-founder in Saratoga looking for a loving soulmate. Kinda wordy, but if you've ever gone to a "Oh, just one more thing!" demo session, that shouldn't surprise you.

¬ "Jewish woman looking for her bashert" seeks, first of all, someone who knows what a bashert is (Gentiles: it's a soulmate. It's not you), with a college degree, who's "a good person." Yep, she's in a high-tech startup, but she's not an engineer.

Word of the day [Dictionary.com]

don't know the girl, but the guy is a product marketing manager named Jon Steinbeck. I don't know about any relations, but the name is no joke.

The tipster goes on to say some terribly unkind things, but suffice to say the "User B is kind of full of himself" line is, in their opinion, funny 'cause it's true.

So we just need the name of lovely User A. Clue me in at tips@valleywag.com.

But there among the big boys is San Fran's favorite do-it-for-the-sex dating site, Consumating (NSFW if you're lucky). I pulled founder Ben Brown over for an IMterview.

Valleywag: So. All these success stories gone wrong. How often has that happened to Consumaters?
Ben Brown: Everything we've heard has basically been, "OMG, I totally met a guy from Consumating last night, and he was hot and we did it. He lives in Brooklyn. I think he might have a blog."
Ben: http://www.amandarin.net/2006/03/first_date.html
Wag: Are you keeping track of these? How many bangs per profile have you logged?
Ben: We don't have accurate numbers, of course, but we speculate as many as 5 or 6 bangs per profile.
And that's just with normal use.
Our power users might expect to get more bang for the metaphorical buck.
Wag: And it's all free, right? Only cost is the loss of the potential for actually meeting people in bars?
Actually, if you started charging, would that be illegal under prostitution law?
Ben: Hardyharhar
Wag: Does anyone actually get married? Your demographic is all too hipster to settle down.
Ben: When someone from Consumating decides to walk down that path, they will notice that our silent footprints will quickly disappear.

Wag: So the other sites in this WSJ story have millions of users. (Except for JDate, but its 148k users are running the world so they count triple.) You have 11 thousand. Who cares about Consumating?
Ben: 11,000 people care, Nick! And they care deeply.
Let me correct myself.
11,304.
Wag: That's major growth!
Ben: That was in only 3 days.
Wag: 1% a day. You'll skyrocket to millions by Easter.
And then— SINGULARITY.
Ben: Yes, we expect total world domination in w4.
err q4.
Wag: I'll edit that. No one will know you can't type.
One last thing: admit, on the record, how you met your girlfriend.
Ben: Here's the real secret. Katie is actually my sister.
Wag: Thanks, Mr. White.
And when the world starts going at it like bunnies, we'll blame you.

ex-jeeves says: you've got some of your facts wrong in this Ask Jeeves post. i worked there for 3.5 years from 1999-2003 and a lot of what you've got here is hardly credible. there was a decent amount of frivolity but this stuff is just stupid.

"on the VP's bed" - how does two people have sex in someone else's bed? is your "informant" implying that the VP was involved? this was a dot.com and there were a lot of VPs. were they leaving work and breaking into a house to sleep in the bed? that doesn't even make sense.

One assumes there were company parties. Though it sounds like this tipster wasn't the sort who got invited.

Earlier: Guest story: Sexual Jeeviants [Valleywag]

Today I was thinking about Ask Jeeves, due to their having recently dropped the butler. And believe me, back in the old days, there was all too much "dropping of the butler" all around if you know what I mean and I think that you do.

1. One employee's father was a member of the Bohemian Club and repeatedly invited Jeeves' only black supervisor to orgies.
2. One lady employee's girlfriend made dame-on-fella butt-humping movies for a living.
3. Two employees, one of whom was married (not to the other) had sex in the CEO's office and on the VP's bed. Repeatedly.
4. The sysadmin insisted that during his time in the adult film industry he was known as "Dick Tushman."
5. The only thing we could never find on the internet was the phrase "used celebrity underwear."
6. Dick Tushman and the CTO used to spend a great chunk of their time asking the hot young twizzlers who worked at Jeeves to "act" in their home-made adult films.
7. The CTO later went on to marry a stripper-law student-hooker, later indicted on fraud charges for hiding her alleged hooker money.

Dropping the butler is an end of an era. Jeeves employees were called "Jeeviants" for a reason. The people who work there now probably spend their work hours working *snort* and their off-time doing sudoku puzzles and protesting the war.

This mercifully non-name-naming list was brought to you by "That Chinese Broad."

Last week, I capriciously decided the public reached a consensus that the semi-anonymous hot Larry and Lucy pics were taken by a good friend of the Stanford grad and her billionaire Google boyfriend. Now a tipster says:

Those pics of Larry and Lucy were taken in Larry's jet by Serge's girlfriend. That is why it looks so casual. Someone got a hold of the pictures on a picture storing sight. I guess even family pictures aren't sacred any more.

No reason we should necessarily believe this tipster, other than faith in "honor amongst gossips," but it's as good a story as any. So, mysterious Smugmug surfer, consider this yet another chance to creep out of hiding, come clean of all your wrongs...and show us all the other good pics.

An amateur photo sleuth commenting on Search Engine Herald lays out, in excruciating detail, the red flags raised by the Larry Page/Lucy Southworth makeout pics. "Zaza" makes a few excellent (if creepy) points:

Lucy's got a sweater on when she's horizontal with Larry — a sweater that wasn't in the sitting-up shots. So that pic was probably taken first.
Is that the New York Post in the background? There must be some connection with that Post paparazzi job on Lucy.
They know the camera's there — but hey, that could just be a friend, not the press.

So maybe this was a staged leak. In which case, rock on, you crazy Google kids. Keep up the fun.

Dear SEH tipster: First off, hope the wounds are healing from whatever beating the Google founder must have given you. Second, why tip off a real search blog when you can send art like that to a fake blog like Valleywag? tips@valleywag.com, man. tips@valleywag.com.

Next up: photos of Sergey flipping the cushions.

But there's a tidbit that somehow didn't make it into the Post — the Southworth family is connected to the Bushes. In 2005, Lucy's sister Carrie married high into Bush staff. Her husband (Coddy Johnson) worked as the national field director for Bush's 2004 campaign. It's not a new family connection — Coddy's dad roomed with Bush at Yale.

Man, if Page is as liberal as he seems, that's gotta be one awkward Thanksgiving dinner.

It's not clear why they split; they're reportedly still friendly. Anyway, she met Jeff (maybe through Quincy's friend and Jeff's boss, Terry Semel), and they're now engaged. Maybe she just wanted to embrace the New Media. Best wishes to them. But if Jeff ever gets on Lisette's nerves, she totally should mutter, "Flashes of Quincy."
