Write with the Postagram App

PostagramCollage

I'm sure it surprises no one that when I travel, I can be a bit of a postcard junkie. I love to send them to my friends back home. Some people don't, I know. They say its silly when you can show people your own photos later, especially since your photos are likely going to be better than the postcards (or at least not as cheesy). Still, there is something undeniably fun about getting the postcard in the mail, rather than just perusing Facebook albums or an Instagram account. That's where Postagram comes in.

Postagram is an app that allows you to send digital pictures as postcards! You can link your Postagram account up to your Facebook account, Instagram account, and/or the "camera roll" on your mobile device. Then you simply pick out which photo you want to use, and it puts the square-cropped photo on a shiny black card for you. You can also personalize with (short) messages. As  seen above, you can choose to keep the whole postcard, or the photo can be punched out with the message on the backside of the postagram photo too. Mail from me to you, all via a mobile device!

The app itself is free. In order to make and send postcards, you do have to buy a minimum of ten dollars worth of "credits" and each postagram is worth so many credits. Then it deducts the amount of credits for each item you send. Postagram's makers also have similar apps to make greeting cards and other stationary; you can use your credits on these other apps as well.

Happy postagramming!
