I get it, it's easy. Few taps on your iPhone and a postcard is on the way to your Mom.

Exactly why it's useful.

I just think that life is too short to subject a relationship as important as the one you have with your parents to a mobile app.

Constant postcards will be welcome (at least by my parents), in addition to the call. Especially useful if you have young kids growing up far from grandparents.



I've been living overseas for over a year now. I video Skype with my parents every week or two on Sundays. Otherwise my parents check out pictures that my girlfriend puts on Facebook every now and then.

I have to admit I am struggling to see this app would work for me. Postcards as emails aren't that useful (I may as well just send an email with a picture attached). Otherwise physical postcards are only interesting if you buy them from the place you are visiting.
