India is on the Move


Frankly I couldn't be happier right now. It was Oscar grand slam for last years best film, "Slumdog Millionaire". They where nominated for 10 Oscars and got 8! If you haven't seen it already, cancel your yoga session and go, go, go!

As if that wasn't enough, today we got our first Indian subscriber. Way to go India!

T-post Web 2.3


We're now getting to the final stage of putting all the features together for the new site. And one of my favorite features are the "T-post map". Which is going to show how all T-posters are spread around the world. And no, we're not going to giveaway where your house is, or where you shop your favorite muffin.

Issue #44 in the Making


We just decided the story for issue #44. And it's a good one! But this is not it: "Pill to Erase Bad Memories". This is one of those not chosen for this issue. The story is really interesting, we think, and a good conversation starter. But we feel that it's a bit technical and "another-scientist-has-discoveredisch". And we've had our fare share of those already. To read the whole peace check out Dailymail.

Remenissing


I was going through my closet today and found a long lost all-time favourite of mine. I found the third issue ever released - "Swedish Police Tests Stungun" and the first one spreading outside the office. It was printed in 45 issues and was the first step towards making T-post in to what it is to day. I really should dig through my closet more often!

This is Not The Story!


"Man Takes 26 Years To Solve Rubik’s Cube" is one of the news stories that we didn't choose for Issue #43. We thought it would be nice to honor his determination which is seldom seen these days. But we saw a great risk in doing so since it would easily just come off as we just wanting to make fun of him. So we dropped that story for an even better one. So keep checking your mailbox..

Check out the whole story about how he finally solved the Rubik’s Cube on Metro.

T-shirt With Hidden Powers

I just got the best feedback a T-shirt maker could ever get. Here's a letter from one of our subscribers telling us all about his adventure with one of our issues. So just kick back, put your feet up and enjoy. We did!

Hello!

I have been an subscriber since June 2006 and i have always gotten great feedback from friends on theses t-shirt, but nothing come close to this.
In the end of this summer i met a girl at a party, didn't speak much there, but later that evening we ended up outside her house to send of peoples in a cab.
So there we stood outside her house alone, not close to knowing each other it was an awkward silence hanging in the air.
I asked if i could come in for a glass of water, her eyes scanned me with a doubtful look and after a few seconds she said ok.
Later i found out that she came to the resolution that someone with a mumin shirt couldn't be dangerous.
One could say that the t-shirt actually got me laid!

Printing It The Good Way


Over the last year we've been changing our printing process. We're now using a printer that is environmentally certified and uses environmentally certified ink. This has been quite a big move for us and we're very proud to be able to handle all the printing in a responsible way.

Be Careful Out There!


"But really, how many friends would you be able to keep if you launched into a comprehensive explanation of just what the cryptic, weird-looking face on your shirt meant?" A fair question, asked by Emily Bobrow on More Intelligent Life.

T-post web 2.0

After boiling down about 1 million ideas to someting more manageable, we've now finnaly put togheter the structure of our new site. It feels fantastic to finnaly see it slowly come together.

Issue #43 in the Making

Just got the first issue from the printer. It looks fantastic!
We had some initial problems getting the colours right, but now when we have it's probably going to be our best issue to date. ;-)

All-subscriber-model-policy!


We've just spent the whole weekend re-shooting all our back-issues. This time with actual subscribers modeling every single one of them. What better way to show our issues then by having the ones using them, model them.

A great thanks to all of the subscribers making it from Spain, Finland and Boden to Stockholm to help us realize this long time dream of ours. The hat is off for you!

T-post on Sundance!


The brilliant filmmaker Patrik Eklund approached me some time ago and wanted to put a few of our issues in a short-film that he was working on. It was now selected to be shown at Sundance Film Festival in January. Check out the trailer: INSTEAD OF ABRACADABRA
