Mini Challenge: Before the Fail Whale

Before the fail whale, there was snail mail, and it seems so quickly we have forgotten the artistry of writing a letter. It also seems that we have forgotten where the nearest mailbox is, how much a stamp cost, or even how to mail a letter all together.
So this week we are encouraging  you  to disconnect from Facebook for a minimum of a week, and that has some of you in a panic. But hey cool it. As part of this project we have promised to help you reconnect you.  So I am throwing you a little mini challenge if you think you can handle it.
Challenge: GO MAIL A LETTER. Mail a friend, your grandmother, Frank if you are into to post secret. So step away from the computer, and take the time to hand write a letter. Spend time on someone you really care about rather than sending a silly tweet or wall post.  Try and complete this process with as little technology as possible, that means no google maps or gps to find this mysterious post-office. Then come back here and e-mail us.  Share with us your experiences, pictures of your letter, whatever you want.  You got our e-mail right? Just in case here is a reminder: disconnect2reconnect@gmail.com !
