Dead Drops (2010 - present) is an anonymous, offline, peer to peer file-sharing network in public space. USB flash drives are embedded into walls, buildings and curbs accessible to anybody in public space. Everyone is invited to drop or find files on a dead drop. Plug your laptop to a wall, house or pole to share your favorite files and data. Each dead drop is installed empty except a readme.txt file explaining the project. Dead Drops is open to participation. If you want to install a dead drop in your city or neighborhood, follow the ‘how to’ instructions and submit the location and pictures on the website: http://deaddrops.com/
