Calling all traveling stuffed animals

April 14th, 2008

Okay!

I think this idea can fly, so to speak, so I’ve been soliciting my friends to buy and name stuffed animals. Four easy steps to get started!

  1. have/make/find/buy a stuffed animal
  2. name it
  3. tell me the name of your animal, and a name for the wiki (*)
    • I will create a URL at ____.isfuzzywilltravel.com, and ____.fly2.nu where the _____ are long and short versions of your animal’s name
    • I’ll create a wiki at those URLs, and email you when they’re ready
  4. tag your animal with either URL I send you!

After your animal has a wiki, take pictures and write about your animal’s adventures!  Send your animal on its own adventures!  With the URL on your animal, anyone can update the wiki as the animal travels!

(*) Wiki names can be anything you like, but think “short and sweet.”  Wikipedia, Roamin’ Uncle Cow, and MontyMeansBusiness are example wiki names.

Given the landrush that’s sure to follow, I’ve decided to start charging after the first 25 wikis!  Setting them up takes just under an hour, so a small donation would be great!

I figured a good way to identify stuffed animals would be with pet tags!  But, putting jacquesrabbit.isfuzzywilltravel.com on a pet tag might be a bit tricky, so I bought a shorter domain: fly2.nu, and created jacques.fly2.nu.  Just a couple days ago I ordered a pet tag with the URL on it!

Welcome, Jacques Rabbit!

I’ve set up a wiki for Jacques, but Jacques doesn’t yet exist!
