Jason Pettus: Mailing list

To receive a 25-word summary via email each time this website is updated, type your address into the box below; an email will be sent to you for verification purposes. Then follow the unsubscription link in the emails to remove yourself at a later time. Those whose cellphones have a company-provided email address (see below for popular examples) can add that below as well, and have notifications sent straight to their device via instant message. (Sent via SMS/MMS protocol; messages are sent for free, although your particular plan's rate still applies).

Email addresses for popular cellphone companies:

Alltel: yournumber@message.alltel.com
AT&T (MMode customers): yournumber@mmode.com
Cingular: yournumber@mobile.mycingular.com
Nextel: yournumber@messaging.nextel.com
Qwest: yournumber@qwestmp.com
SBC/Ameritech: yournumber@paging.acswireless.com
Sprint: yournumber@messaging.sprintpcs.com
SunCom: yournumber@tms.suncom.com
T-Mobile: yournumber@tmomail.net
US Cellular: yournumber@uscc.net
Verizon: yournumber@vtext.com
VoiceStream: yournumber@voicestream.net

Know of more (especially British, Euro, Australian and Asian)? Send them to me and I'll update this list. If your phone is equipped to receive photos, you will receive the MMS signal; if you do not have this ability but can receive text messages, you will receive the SMS one.

This service is powered courtesy of the company Rmail; I have asked the developers to please invent an "unsubscribe" button I can run here as well, so that cellphone owners can fully manage their account from this page. I hope to be able to include it as an option here soon.

[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.

[social bookmarks]
Each day I post 5 to 15 links online to other interesting things I've found on the web; I post them at del.icio.us, Digg and Netscape, for those who would like to follow along.

Send Me an Odeo

If you have a microphone attached or built into your computer, you can now send me audio comments on top of written emails, courtesy of Odeo, by clicking on the above icon. You do not need to be a member of Odeo to leave a comment; simply follow the onscreen instructions there to record directly through your browser. Warning: I do occasionally post the more thought-provoking or entertaining audio comments here at my main journal.

Reader feedback

There are four different ways readers can get thoughts and opinions sent to my attention; click here to read the details. (The easiest: simply write it in your own blog, then either link here or add the tag 'jasonpettus'.) Anyone who wants can then go to a variety of aggregators to see what my readers have had to say about recent entries; here is del.icio.us' results, for example, and here is Technorati's, the two services I use most often.
