"Twitter has opened up these porn stars fan bases like nothing the adult film industry has ever seen before," said Dan Miller, managing editor of XBiz, an adult industry trade publication. "Since most mainstream pop culture publications don't cover the porn industry (and) porn movie reviews don't generally appear alongside reviews of big Hollywood movies ... the adult industry has embraced Twitter as a way to reach out directly to fans beyond the typical porn consumer."
Kayden Kross credits Twitter with her success in the adult film industry and beyond.
She is working on a novel set in the world of porn and posts essays on her website and tweets them out to her followers.
"If you're interacting with people, you're putting part of your soul into it," she said. "The people that understand me the best are people into writing."
