Hey everyone! My buddies and I are excited to have just launched this service! We wanted to take the concept of 'Reddit gold' and bring into the physical world. Gildme lets you surprise another Reddit user with a message and a fun token (a plastic gold coin) in the mail!

@gautam_io how do you get another Redditor's shipping address? ;) wonder if @alexisohanian likes this! :)
Gautam Jain
@bramk We automatically notify the recipient (via a private message on Reddit) to let them know someone sent them gold. The recipient can then 'claim' the gold on our site by entering his/her address.

Fun product.

@simonmactaggart that's actually what we're going for eventually. The ability to gift someone something without knowing their address. Could be flowers or Amazon gifts on a public wish list. Gold coins are just the beginning!

@richardgong Instead of favouriting a Tweet... being able to send an Amazon or iTunes gift card...

@simonmactaggart Integrating with Twitter is a great idea, I think we'll be doing just that :)

Cool :)

@simonmactaggart Will DM you on Twitter when we start moving in this direction!
