paying for schwag

any of you remember ValleySchwag? a company that (for a $15 monthly subscription) sent random t-shirts and other schwag every month. it intrigued me, but i never signed up. then it went away. but there's a new company on the block, and they're going to give it another go: i just signed up for Startup Schwag.

"Startup Schwag™ is a surprise web2.0 startup tshirt of the month club. There may be more schwag (stickers, random chochkis) at some point, possibly even in the first shipment *wink-wink* but that’ll be another surprise.

it's an interesting insight into tech culture that i'm willing to pay to advertise someone else's company...
