Zine Swap (UK)

[Colouring Outside The Lines]

I just got sent a link to this, which sounds pretty interesting, so I thought I'd share...

"Zineswap aims to be a resource through which people can swap their zines with one-another.
It also aims to become a vast archive of contemporary zine publishing, existing as both an online catalogue and an annual exhibition.
We are looking for contributions from people that self-publish their own zine or magazine. Content is not limited in anyway, your zine can be about anything."

It does look interesting, but it might take the fun out of those random trades I like to send around the world!

Starting a fight is the last thing I want to do, but I don't really see the usefulness of this project - apart from benefitting the "archive." I don't understand why I should use you as a go-between when I can contact other zine makers directly. I even have to pay for the zine(s) you are going to send me. And I have to send three copies. if I send only one or two, they go directly into the "archive" and I get nothing.
