great news!

You may recall the disposable camera I sent out into the world as a little experiment almost two years ago? I have an update!

People have been asking me, "hey, whatever happened to that camera?" and I've been sadly reporting that I thought it was lost. I was getting steady emails about its whereabouts until December 2011, well over a year ago. It travelled around Ottawa before heading to Kingston and then apparently catching a flight west to Edmonton, where it was last reported (at one point someone had hidden it in a toilet in the woods...).

In the meantime, I've done a few other experiments, including placing a "cache cam" in one of my own geocaches and asking people to take pictures, but not to move it to other caches. That one was a success.

Then last night I got an email out of the blue. Somebody found the travelling camera in a cache where it wasn't supposed to be. We are back in the game! To be honest, I'm both excited and a little terrified to see what's on it, but I can't imagine what condition the film is in at this point.

Stay tuned, and help me cheer on this little camera until its frames are full and it gets home safe!
