GoPostal is the iPhone postcard company I touted a few weeks ago.  I tried the service and it works just as promised.

This is all very cool and can be a nice small business but the big opportunity for them or their competitors is to offer the same service but for Christmas cards.  It is a much bigger market. I estimate they can do ten million dollars sales in the first year with some smart marketing.

Check out their site and then think about sending your Christmas cards by selecting a photo and greeting, clicking your address list and then hitting the send button.  The recipients will receive cards in the mail just like always.  They will be personalized and stamped and you won’t have had to do any of the work.  The cost of a post card ($1.29) is cheaper than the cost of buying a Christmas card and a stamp and there is no labor.
