in reply to PM merchandise/icon design quest

Fridge magnets are a great idea. But as well as simple round, etc ones with logos on, how about 'code snippet' fridge magnets?

You know you can get sets of words to put on your fridge (which visitors etc normally rearrange to form obscenities or poetry according to their drunkenness or wit) well why not bits of code?

Some careful thought is needed to select your set of snippets, but perl is ideal for this due to the compactness and expressiveness of the language.

Sorry if the idea is to produce monk-specific things, perhaps the set could contain some perl-monkish comment blocks :-)

Does anyone else think this is a good idea, if so should I/we put some more thought into what a good set of tokens would be?

      This looks fun! Unfortunately, the site's home page says Perl Toys is currently closed for business.

      :-(

        I think ThinkGeek carries them now.

      Yikes. Nothing new under the sun.

      Thanks for the pointer.

      What percentage of the sales goes to Perl Monks if we buy from this site?

    Man, I would buy a set of fridge magnets in a heartbeat. I passed on them when perltoys.com came out with them and have been kicking myself repeatedly since then....
