Postcard Project Update - Monday, February 23, 2004
I'm getting requests from Web Junkie, most in Canada. Can someone point me to the website that referred them here?
Also, I figured since many of you are returning to see how the project is going, I should provide you with an update. I admit, I don't know a lot about the total overall experience, since I only talk to my mom on the phone. She lives a little far and I make it up there around once a month. * I'd estimate she's received around 250-300 pieces of mail so far. * I've had about 600 requests for her address. * People in Japan, Korea, Australia, Finland, Canada, Germany and New Zealand have requested it. * Mom tells me she averages 10 pieces of 'junk mail' (that's us!) a day. * The bottlecaps were not a good idea. They were often stripped out of the envelopes by the mail sorting machines. * The project has been online since Jan 2. * We have received over 90,000 hits since. * Our busiest day was Wednesday, Feb 18 with over 13,000 hits. * I received an address request every 5 minutes that day. * I don't think Mom is 100% sure who is doing this. * As time goes on, and she sees the items change monthly, she'll realize how organized this is, and most likely blame me. * I'm not an organized person, but the power of the Internet can be (and is being) harnessed for cruel jokes on poor mothers. * Mom has received a Shout! wipe, some origami birds, a note about Melba toast, personal letters, many postcards, and more. * Mom loves the mail. She has told me "Whoever is doing this, tell them to keep it up, I'm having fun" Comments? |
