Lost a Glove? Web Site’s Here to the Rescue!

Good news for the ones for whom a lost glove is a reason of grief and sadness! A graduate student in the Carnegie Mellon University School of Art called Jennifer Gooch launched a web site that aims to help these poor fellows for whom losing a glove is a serious thing.

So, no matter how strange this idea would sound for the others, www.onecoldhand.com was launched and has already solved four cases: four gloves have been already reunited with their original owners. And Jennifer Gooch won’t stop here; after successfully reuniting these four poor little lost gloves with their owners, the graduate student plans to launch similar web sites for cities from all around the world. Gooch has also serious plans regarding a book to showcase her found gloves.

Onecoldhand.com’s first successful glove reunion took place just a week ago, when a CMU intern from Germany learnt about the web site and checked it out to see whether someone had found also her missing beige glove. Much to her joy, she found it on the web site, under the description “woman’s leather glove with bling.”

The woman’s pair of gloves had been bought a few years ago from Germany, but she later lost one at Carnegie Mellon’s Simon-Newell Hall. "It was a very popular glove. I was actually kind of happy it was our first reunion," Jennifer Gooch said about the first case her web site solved.

www.onecoldhand.com got no less than 55,000 hits in the last 10 days, after its story ran all over the world, thanks to the news web sites and blogs.
