While some postal workers clearly act like they’re from a galaxy far, far away, we’ve had no way to prove this theory correct. Here’s a test. Plant the X-Wing Mailbox in front of your driveway and see how your mailman reacts. If you see a trace of nostalgia briefly cross the usual stony expression of your mailman’s face, it’s clear you’re dealing with an intergalactic traveler. If the reaction is not one of nostalgia, well, he’s probably still an alien.... Continue reading

From the maker of Baconnaise and Bacon Salt, we introduce Mmmvelopes, the first bacon-flavored envelope. I’m not sure the what the ratio is between postal workers and postal workers who would eat anything bacon-flavored, but even psycho gun-wielding mailmen gotta love their bacon. Just look at Newman for Christ’s sake. You know he’s enjoyed a few pounds of bacon in his lifetime. If you have no intention of your letter ever reaching its destination, these Mmmvelopes are likely the sending... Continue reading

Up until today, we thought that much of the Netflix system was ran by software and machinery, but as it turns out, a lot of manual human labor goes into the Netflix shipping cycle.

I seem to be wrong, though. Mail Goggles is a new feature designed to keep you from sending emails in a drunken state of anger.

Just because the USPS tracking system happens to be as unreliable as a women’s period with PCOS, you might need a little extra push to ensure your snail mail still arrives at its proper destination. This way, at least it’s the right person who calls the cops on you for stalking. The GPS Mail Logger is just the kind of thing to save you the tracking fee. Measuring only a quarter of an inch thick, and compatible with Google Earth,... Continue reading

When we send photos to our loved ones, we send them with the hope that they will show the photos in their home with pride, but what if they don’t have any open picture frames? They’ll eventually forget about the photos all together, throwing them in some mildly messy filing cabinet for postmortem separation. GetFramed is a new concept which ships the photo for you, alone with a paper picture frame which can be constructed using the same envelope the... Continue reading
