The media's favorite livecasting experiment Justin TV - a project where a 23-year-old San Francisco man Justin wears a video camera strapped to his head 24 hrs a day, seven days a week - has announced some new features on the Justin TV site.
The most exciting is the option for site users to create their own channel and share their life with whoever has enough time to watch. The media has been buzzing about Justin and his copycat lifecasters for some time now and rumor has it that Natalie Portman has even considered a continuous video feed of her work and personal life.
I know many of you agree with me when I say the idea of having a camera follow your world 24/7 is somewhat unsettling, but there is also a certain thrill about the idea. Sadly I fear a prominent lifecast by a woman would quickly turn into a sexualized "hot or not" debate, but I am still interested to see if the Justin TV network idea really takes off.

I might try it.
1I think I am in, just because it's such an intriguing concept. Sure, there's reality tv, but 24/7? What about showers, and bowel movements, and picking his nose? I'm just curious to see how he personally tackles a life that is always on the air.
2I haven't watched the show for more than 20 minutes at a time, but according to Tech Crunch Justin does hide his more personal moments. Here's more:
3Yeah, that's a little much! I like my personal space.
4that's going to be kinda weird, especially for his friends and family with a video camera in their face.
