P:log Brings Blogging To Prison Inmates

You may wonder just what designer Yejin Mun is thinking with his system to bring blogging to prison inmates. Yet the P:log – a printer and scanner combo with which prisoners can upload their journals anonymously - serves a real purpose. The loneliness of prison life alienates inmates from society. What better way to reconnect than by unleashing their woes on an unsuspecting web?

Fortunately, the anonymity clause puts a stop to any great escapes being hatched by angst-ridden inmates. And we trust that prisoners wouldn’t service the P:log themselves – ink cartridges are deadly in the wrong hands!
