The least technologically advanced product on Product Hunt. Milk Truck Mail is a monthly mail club for those who think the future needs to calm down a little. Get a zine with an entertaining letter and a steady supply of analog good things delivered monthly in an envelope with a USPS stamp. Never QR codes. Nope.
I started Milk Truck Mail as part of a quest to bring back some of the best things in life we accidentally left behind. Each month you receive a real letter in a 8-page zine with a custom design and some other analog artifacts. It's delivered to your physical mailbox by a government employee.
There will never be a QR code.
There won't be thought leadership. It won't ever use the word 'synergy'. It will be about a topic that I, personally, need to hear right now.
Why am I doing this?
Because technology is incredible. Amazing.
I'm a huge proponent of the wildly advanced things this community is doing. But I also need a break and think we've probably automated enough for today.
Two things can be true at once.
Life wasn't meant to be lived in a constant state of optimization with a lingering feeling that you’re falling behind. It doesn't feel good and it's also not true.
Analog experiences are going to help us not feel so existentially tired all of the time.
My hope is that this can play a small part in allowing us to pump the brakes a little.
Maybe it will be meaningful to you.
Thanks for being here. Thanks for being you.
