HELLO, IT'S ME

No, I'm not dead - just a year older. Funny how that happens in one day! To find out what Chuck's been up to, and how fat his cat is, and what his mom looks like - hop over here.

Very exciting news in the vlogosphere: John Edwards' vlog is live, with alt.america's sweetheart, Amanda Congdon. This is one of America's leaders, responding one-to-one through the emerging medium of videoblogs. Between that and a new army correspondent in Iraq, Andrew and the whole Rocketboom team are really setting the bar high for the future of new media. My hats off to you guys. And... my Voltage05 fashion show report is coming next week, I swear.

One last bit of good news: Jason Scott explains why BBS Documentary is Creative Commons. Amen. Now if I could get an intern, or stop the flow of time, so I can make Blogumentary legal to release online...

Thanks for having sex in the autumn of 1970, mom and dad!

Nostalgia notes: Last year I spent the night before my birthday feeling reflective at an Askeleton show. Here are pics from last year's rainy BBQ. Funny to think a year ago I was greatly anticipating Fahrenheit 911 and wondering what happened to Plain Layne. It's all there in the June 2004 archives. Even fucktard.

Oh - hey look! Our vlog story is spreading [thanks Steve]:
