A quality iPhone app

[Gorgeous_bird]

nick saw this in the Thomas cook magazine on the way back from Turkey on Saturday. A free app called Postcards, you take a picture, add your text, address it and send it. The picture is turned into a postcard and posted within the UK. I think it's a quality idea and would have loved to use it whilst on my holidays. Will do next time though.

Its a really good idea for an app - hope they do well with it

Who pays for the postage?

[Scunner]

You pay 99p for the service and printing, which includes postage for each card.

I think it's great- no standing waiting to buy a stamp in a post office, no arriving home before the postcard -if it ever gets to it's destination and most importantly ofers a really personal image of your holiday. Probably a postcard and postage to the UK would cost at least 99p.

And I'm sure those sweet hotel receptionists who promise to post them for you throw them straight in the bin

Sounds a good un to me

I thought at first that I do not need this service as I can always e-mail people.  Then I thought of the people we know who do not have e-mail or rarely use it, and suddenly this is looking like a winning idea.

Checked out the site and it is available as an App for Android phones  :)as well as Iphone, but does not look like it offers a PC version:(

I often send a picture by photo messaging but it costs quite a bit when you are abroad. So this seems like a good idea as long as you can get it to them for free (no roaming data costs).
