What is it?

Basically, a PocketPacket is a modified envelope stuffed with personalized, free, hand made content and left in a public space for a stranger to find. The contents are decided by the PPP community over at sister site Bricolab.com, and are changed month by month for a different flavour of PocketPacket.

Flavour of the month

The first ‘flavour’ is the PocketPedia. The PocketPacketer prints off a Wikipedia article about something they are passionate about – the Pirate bay, for example – and stuffs it in a PocketPacket, along with a recommendation, invitation to PPP and other downloadable PocketPacket goodness. Next, they dump it on a train, a bus, or in another public space where bored people are likely to pick it up.

Through a simple act of sharing, the word gets out about p2p culture, and commuters are saved from having to read advertorial rubbish, churned out potboiler novels and train ads. Everyone’s a winner.
