Its OK To Be Ghetto!

» Back Online!

After a lengthy downage, (due to a server failure and loss of backups of the site) we are now back online :) I will update this site once i get a break from work and writing my book.

» Legal Issues

Just to keep everyone posted...The Stanford Law School Center for Internet and Society has posted some of the letters going back and forth with FedEx. I have provided links to their site for your convenience.

» What Is This?

FedEx Furniture is furniture put together by empty FedEx Boxes, and held together by fedex packaging supplies. All of the furniture seen here is 100% functional. The couch is standing/sleeping approved, I sleep on the bed every night, I eat at the dining table, and I work at the desk almost 20 hours a day.


» How this started

My name is Jose. 4 months ago, my friends Tom and Rob moved to Seattle. Tom, not having a job or a place to stay, eventually managed to get himself an apartment, but still had no furniture. Utilizing FedEx boxes, he built a simple desk for his PC. Several months later, I moved to Arizona for a new job, and had a similar problem, no furniture. Using FedEx boxes and packaging materials, I constructed a desk, bed, couch, dining table and chairs out of the boxes. I'm currently stuck with double rent (both my new and old apartments), and can not afford real furniture. After seeing pictures my friend Divide convinced me to build this site.


» Thanks

I just wanted to give a special thanks to Jennifer Granick and the Stanford Law School Center for Internet and Society, Alex Muse (WeblogsWork) for helping me set up the Blog, and for all of the support. Keith and Jayna for always partying me down like a rock star, and leaving a shopping cart in my kitchen (Dont ask)... photojerk for hosting a large majority of the images and such from this site, and the hundreds of people that have written and offered support for the site.
