I received a little burlap sack in the mail last Friday, but did not have time to open it due to my move out of Taylor Hall. Well, first off, what the hell is Valleyschwag? Valleyschwag is a monthly care-package-esque type of subscription service. For $15/month they will send you a burlap sack filled with goodies related to the interwebernet. Not everybody gets the same stuff, which adds to the suspense once received. Subscribers are even encouraged to post what they got on flickr. The first issue had 60 subscribers and the second 1500, with me signing up 5 minutes after reading about it. They are growing quick.
As soon as I opened my burlap sack Goatse (SFW link) stickers fell out. I am keeping this subscription forever. I was lucky enough to receive two t-shirts, one RubyRed Labs and one Gr?pthink, instead of the typical one. I also got some pins, some EFF stickers, a temporary tattoo, and a Songbird sticker. I can’t wait for the next issue. Keep it coming RubyRed Labs!
