Snail Mail proves that 'slow' has value

"How Slow?: In making Real Snail Mail we asked ourselves 'is there a space in our speed obsessed world for a service that takes time?' Overwhelmingly, the answer has been YES! We are now asking ourselves the more interesting question 'how slow?' With emails stacking up at an astounding rate we will soon be bringing more snails into service to cope with demand.

How it works: Our snails are equipped with a miniaturised electronic circuit and antenna, enabling them to be assigned messages. Your message is collected from a despatch centre at one end of their enclosure. Once associated with the tiny electronic chip on the snail's shell your message will be carried around until the snail chances by the drop off point. Here more hardware collects your message and forwards it to its final destination."
