i was actually thinking recently about how long it would be before people start getting whole designs and artwork created out of multiple microdermals... (maybe someone has already done this?)
i always wonder about microdermals and piercings in places other than head/neck... it just seems to me like it would be really easy for them to get bumped or touched accidentally and i would have to worry about them all the time! (granted, i do have a navel piercing which is not head/neck...but that particular spot seems easier for me to protect than arms/legs/rest of torso)
idot39, do you have any pictures of your hip microdermals? they sound interesting!
also, one's side gets quite a lot of movement... are you sure they would be successful there? you'd always have to think about what you're wearing, how you're sleeping, sitting, reaching, twisting, leaning, making sure your arm doesn't brush it, think about it when you're putting on jackets or holding a purse or carrying something...
