When geeks get together at conferences and the like, you&#8217;ll always see people rushing to get their paws on the latest cool startup&#8217;s tshirt or frisbee or flashing bouncy ball.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/09/03/return-of-the-schwag/">TechCrunch has a story</a> on <a href="http://www.startupschwag.com/" title="StartUpSchwag">StartUpSchwag</a> which will be doing a similar thing which <a href="http://www.valleyschwag.com/">ValleySchwag</a> started doing last year, which was to bag up all the &#8216;schwag&#8217; (that&#8217;s free stuff, folks) they could from the plethora of startups in Silicon Valley and deliver to all the schwagheads every month for $15.</p>
<p>StartUpSchwag differs from ValleySchwag in that it will actually do the production of the merch for the companies too, making it easy to fulfill &#8211; which ValleySchwag sometimes found hard to do every month.</p>
<p>Nice idea! I heart schwag! And I happen to have the kewlest domain for said service : <strong><a href="http://schw.ag" title="schwag">http://schw.ag</a></strong> !! Niiiice <img src='http://blog.kosso.co.uk/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I&#8217;ve had a website system planned for tshirt, mug, mousemat, etc designing for a while, over at <a href="http://blograffiti.com">http://blograffiti.com</a>, for user generated merchandise for a few years. I still need to find a decent (global) printer/fulfiller to help me in this venture.  I already have a redesigned doodler thing ready to go.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s also quite a few of these things cropping up all the time, some with some great tools for designing stuff. <a href="http://cafepress.com">CafePress</a> being the obvious one and <a href="http://pixeltees.com/">PixelTees</a> being an early starter in the self-made tee game.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s also more on this story <a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/startupschwag_paying_for_schwag_makes_a_comeback.php">over on ReadWriteWeb</a>.</p>
