While I love the look and feel of a handwritten note, I love the versatility and convenience of an electronic one perhaps even more.
I am a longtime devotee of Cocodot (another earlier post, started off as an online electronic card service and is now a lifestyle collection of many cool things).
This summer while I was on the go I discovered two amazing iPhone apps that helped me send both real and electronic postcards to my family and friends.
The first is Postagram. Very easy to use app where you can send real postcards to those you love. You can use the pictures you have taken on your phone seamlessly, and it uses addresses in your contact list to do the rest. You do have to pay for the service because they do send a real postcard on your behalf, but you never have to trek to a postoffice, it is all done instantaneously through the app on your phone. In my opinion well worth the $2 per postcard (far less if you buy credits that start at $9.90 for 50).
It was fantastic fun while we were on vacation in Europe this summer. How great is to send a postcard with your own happy faces on vacation, rather than the usual stock photos on regular postcards??!! The picture even punch out for framing if desired. Brilliant.
The second it RedStamp. This is a free iPhone app that allows you to send electronic postcards to those you love for any occasion. Once again you can incorporate your own pictures, and it uses your contacts to send them. Magnificently versatile yet easy. Happy days!!
Download some gorgeous fun today!!
