Look what someone else found

FoundFellow copywriter and 26 member Tim Rich drew my attention to a great website called Found. It's a magazine comprised simply of photographs and scraps of writing that readers have found.

The criterion for inclusion is pretty simple: 'anything goes'. And the often bizarre items on the site are by turns hilarious, disturbing, bewildering - and even rather moving, like the one pictured here.

People seem to find all sort of things - love letters, wedding snaps, hate mail, notes for conversations and scraps of diaries. And they find them everywhere - on the street, tucked into library books, in used cars... all over the place.

It's a great site for nosy parkers like me, who like nothing more than peeking into other people's lives. (It's a writer thing, I reckon.) And it's one of those sites you can easily get lost in for hours. Click here to find Found.
