Poking a sleeping giant

So, how much is given back to the original creator of the photo, which postme.me is using to generate profit?

I thought this was going to be about how a small postcard startup poked Apple, which decided to make its own Cards.app

That said, I have a DSLR and thus have way more sendable pictures on my computer than I do on my phone. Also, writing a postcard is something I want to sit and be deliberate about, not just impulsively do on the phone. Hopefully postme.me finds its niche there (the cheaper price is nice too)

Interesting article.

Some thoughts:

- how many people don't access the internet where they are travelling.

- A written postcard means a lot to people. I don't get many but someone stood in a physical place in the world to send something to me is something to keep. Maybe as our culture moves forward receiving a typed postcard will be okay.

If someone could get the postcard handwritten and sent out.. maybe we have something.

API?

C'mon e-cards aren't new at all. There have been hundreds of e-card websites pop-up, and die off over the years. They all eventually had to turn to spam and splatter their websites with ads just to stay afloat.
