Kept is a movement celebrating the stuff that can be kept in the world, the stuff that isn't rubbish. Together we will help the people who still design and sell rubbish to embrace the change.
Here is the 3-step kept plan:
1) Keep something instead of buying a new thing
2) Tell everyone about your choice using your blog, twitter, or the www.kept.it homepage (tweet using #kept)
3) Get other people to join in

We all love shiny new things, but everyday it is becoming clearer that they don't make us as happy as we'd all hoped. This is our moment to make things better! Start by keeping something instead of replacing it, and – most importantly – tell people why you kept it! www.kept.it
We're working with government and with big companies to figure out how they can make things better. They do want to do their bit, but they need all of us to do our bit too. We have to prove that people want less waste in the consumer economy and that's where you come in.
We promise that we will do the rest of the hard work, and turn your stories into real change in the real world. But for the time being, please use this group to tell us how you think Kept should work, ask questions and make comments.
Once you get into this stuff, you find that new shiny stuff isn't that cool anyway. Things don't have to be rubbish, old is the new new!
