I attended a MTV Youth talk a few weeks back at which a panel of early twenty-somethings classed me as a 'geriatric gen y'. How observant. So it's no suprise that with my recent move overseas and hundreds of emails, messages, mms's later... that I've found myself lamenting the days of the old letterbox. Not the one you would eagerly await postcards by, but the one in which you would store highlighter-hued handwritten notes secretly slid between school tables... as rich and liberating as our social media lives are, how are we ever to rediscover, relive, or re-share those page-scrolling moments with others, let alone in a single, easy to access place?
Facebook Timeline will certainly help, as well as computer to hard-copy solutions in the blurb's and pinhole press's of the world, not to mention the little app to paper solves like prinstagram and postagram.
And this genius creation by Berg Design Studio is also just brilliant, and for so many more reasons than to appease my nostalgic geriatric self...
