Lose a Glove (in Pittsburgh, PA)? Find it Online

Well, I guess now we've seen it all. If you lose a glove, there's a website where you can go to find it. It's only running in Pittsburgh, PA right now though, but the woman who runs it hopes to expand it soon.

I wouldn't hold my breath to see this work as the next untapped craze or business model of the Internet though. The woman who runs the site is an art student and it sounds like the website may be as much of an art project as it is a service. Gloves are collected at drop off points or mailed in to her and she photographs them and posts them online. You'd have to have a lot of time on your hands to do this on a long term basis.

It's still very amusing though. BTW, has anyone seen a black wrist length microfleece glove with rubberized patches on the palm and fingers? The wrist is stitched with a logo that says "EMS." I dropped it when getting out off my car in Downtown Palo Alto about five years ago. wink.gif

Anyway here's the site.

Sounds like it would be too cost-prohibitive to continue. BTW, has anyone seen OJ's glove? ohmy.gif
