Junk mail "in association with the Royal Mail" - a questionnaire
that promises it can stop unwanted mailshots coming through my
letterbox. A questionnaire that asks a hundred questions of me
and/or hypothetical pets and children, so it can tell exactly
which particular mailshots I might consider "unwanted". Ahem.
I don't know, I'm always in two minds about this sort of thing -
it'd be nice to be told of things I wanted to know about, to
receive vouchers for things I'd genuinely buy, but the sphere of
relevance is always stretched too thinly by desperate chancers.
I'd pay good money for a service that emailed or paper-mailed me about
very specific things I was interested in, that would risk similar
things if I ticked a box, that would shut up about Radiohead if
I told them to.
Decent
Things, but as much about products as events, with
appropriate and copious industry connections. Companies paying
money to get stuff advertised through it, being billed on a
"people who really are interested" basis. Hmm.
