Dear Reader — What were your favorite Hooksexup essays of 2008? We picked our own top twenty-five. Take a minute to look back through (c'mon, you're not really working!) then vote for as many as you like. Starting on December 22nd, we'll count down the ten most beloved essays of the year, and give their authors a little longer in the spotlight — the least they deserve for exposing their greatest turn-ons, embarrassments, neuroses and dreams to the harsh gaze of the internet. To encourage further (over)sharing, we'll send the winner a Polaroid PoGo™ Instant Mobile Printer, which connects to your camera to produce Polaroids for the digital age. And lest the nine runners-up feel neglected, we'll send them each one of these extremely romantic t-shirts. Clearly, your votes have important ramifications for the future of online literate smut. So get votin'!

Updated January 19: Voting is now closed! Thanks, everyone — check back on Monday, when we begin to unveil the winners!
