n. A kind of shareware that borders on freeware , in that the author
|
|
|
|
|
requests only that satisfied users send a postcard of their home town or
|
|
|
|
|
something. (This practice, silly as it might seem, serves to remind users
|
|
|
|
|
that they are otherwise getting something for nothing, and may also be
|
|
|
|
|
psychologically related to real estate sales in which $1 changes hands just
|
|
|
|
|
to keep the transaction from being a gift.
