This is really cool. I’ve never seen anything of this sort. The idea is you glue a disposable camera to a sheet of cardboard and then write instructions on it. You also write a mailing address so that people who handle the camera at USPS (United States Parcel Service – Like Royal Mail for the US) will take photos of themselves and others who work there. The camera then arrives to your destination, preferably to your friend who lives a distance away so it has a better chance of succeding, with the photos taken. Your friend then takes the camera and develops it and scans it in and posts it on the internet. Pretty cool, the guy on the site has tried a couple of times and has a tips page helping you to succeed. I wonder if it would work here in the UK with Royal Mail. I don’t know how co-operative they would be.
