About the same time we stop eating food and everyone lives on super-concentrated Food Pellets(tm) I expect. While driving flying cars on the moon.
How will I get my stuff from eBay?
Has its limits when you're not in the USA.

Yes. Thank you for broadening my perspective.

In this country alone, one million men are walking up to mailboxes, hand-picking-up, driving, sorting, re-sorting, driving, and hand-delivering stuff - at an enormous cost and waste (both in terms of dollars and in terms of the environment). In this modern day and age, it’s absurd. We’ve got e-mail, IM, twitter, etc.
The question is, when and how is this finally going to change?
Zumbox launched yesterday - "the alternative postal service". Is this the answer? Thoughts?
