O'Dell has been chronicling his days via digital photos and has amassed a steady following of viewers. A former staff photographer for Thrasher magazine, O'Dell's site features stars of the skateboarding world, New York musicians, photographers, artists, and a whole revolving cast of friends and drunken strangers that populate the posts on his site. At first glance the basic design may not immediately grab you, but as you view more and more of the posts, laden with the lyrics of one Steven Patrick Morrissey, it all begins to make sense. You are experiencing, on a small level, what it is like to live in New York and be Patrick O'Dell, and it's a fun and addictive ride.
