Wanna Be Pen Pals?
Update: There was a 1,000 person limit on this and they reached it at about 8:30 EST last night. They will have another round sometime after April 1st though so keep your eyes open!
Confession: I may prefer to be strictly digital with most things, but I love getting real mail. When my friend Katie sent me a Valentine’s Day postcard I got all kinds of excited. I love getting postcards from Brett and Kate over at Foreign Detours. It’s a bit of real in my digital life. So I was excited to see International Geek Girl Pen Pals Club in my twitter feed today.
Sign up is now through April 1, 2013 (oh please don’t let this be a joke). You list where you’re from and your top five favorite geeky things and they match you up. I’ll be posting about this in the coming months, so get in now if you don’t want to feel left out.
Now, to Etsy to find some cute stationary…
Reblogged this on Geek Girls Rule the World! and commented:
From the amazing blog Pure Geekery. I have come to hate snail mail, but only because it’s either bills or junk. If it were a real letter from a friend, that would be pretty cool.
This is spectacular. I have come to hate real mail, but only because it’s either bills or junk. If it were a letter from a geek, that would be cool.
Unfortunately they’ve already closed down sign-ups.
They shut down in hours unfortunately. They had a 1,000 person limit and reached it super quick. They are going to do another round though!
