I just remembered of the existance of this neat program, its been so long since I've used it. Now it seems like they have an OS X version of it, but no where have I found the most recent release in English, which is disappointing. Anyone remember BottleMail?

Found the download page (in Japanese only unfortunately.) http://www.bottlemail.jp/down01.html
Its a fun way to kill some time I suppose, with some nice visuals. The 'premise' is that you're on a beach, and you can write, draw, include images of whatever you want on a message in a bottle (awesome Sting & The Police song btw). The bottle is sent out randomly to another person online, and if you chose to have a return tag they can write back. Pretty neat.
