other sites

[i am a camera]
A more confessional journal than this one, updated more frequently, always accompanied by a real-time cellphone photo. Maintained at my VOX account, using their excellent mobile client for Palm. RSS-enabled.

[randomvideo]
Two- to five-minute video reports from random events in my day-to-day life: gallery openings, indie-rock shows, drunken parties with my friends and the like. Recorded on my cellphone, a Treo 650, uploaded at a later date to my account at YouTube.com. RSS-enabled.

[randomaudio]
The same as [randomvideo] but with audio only, and posted in real time using cellphone technology, via Odeo.com. RSS-enabled; can be used in such podcasting software as iPodder and iTunes.

[flickr]
Candid photos from my day-to-day life in Chicago and elsewhere, courtesy of Flickr.com. RSS-enabled. I am also now maintaining a separate page there as well, tracking just my favorite images from other photographers.

[fabb]
A promotional website and blog for Fabb, the "virtual prefabricated housing" company I run within the strange videogame Second Life. Includes regular free tutorials on the SL building process.

[social bookmarks]
Each day I post 5 to 15 links online to other interesting things I've found on the web, over at my account at del.icio.us. A good option for those who want to find out what in the general culture interests me these days, in that I rarely post outside links here at my personal site. RSS-enabled.

The Jason Pettus Superfeed: One insanely busy RSS feed tracking 12 different places online that I update often -- not only my four blogs, but my Flickr and YouTube accounts, del.icio.us and LinkedIn too, my latest book reviews at GoodReads, my latest favorites at Google Reader, my movie queue list at Netflix, and my current status on GTalk. Maintained by the free service FriendFeed.com.

(Spoken in a high-pitched nervousness) Oh my God, I'm having the greatest time right now. Aren't you having a great time? Aren't we all just having the greatest time right now, sitting here at this table in this bar with these drinks and this company? GOD, I'm having a good time. Seriously, I mean that. I'm having the greatest time right now, right this very second, right as these words are coming out of my mouth I'm having the greatest time. One day in the future when I'm old, they'll tell me to think of all the great times I had as a youth and I'll think of this night, this very night. When I light this cigarette I'll think of what a great time I was having lighting this cigarette thinking about what a great time I was having. GOD, I'm having a great time! I want to make a toast. No, seriously, I want to make a toast to the great time we're having. We may never do this again! We may never all be in the same room again to have such a great time, so yes, a toast. A toast to the great time we're having and all my great friends who are helping me have this great time we're having.

(Performer steps to the side of the microphone and acts like an incredulous bystander) Okay! Enough already!

(Performer steps back to the mic and acts confused) Jeez, why are you in such a bad mood?
