    Hi there! We recently launched iwiLetter.com “e-we Letter” and we use only recycled paper and envelopes. Send a letter anywhere in the US from anywhere you have Internet access. For example, if you are travelling anywhere in the world, simply visit iwiLetter.com and type your letter. We’ll print, stuff, stamp, and mail it much faster than a letter would be mailed from outside the US.

    I used that http://www.snailmailme.com site the other day, worked out amazing. Sent a postcard to friends back home. I work for a charitable organization in Calgary and using snailmailme for RSVP’s to the event might work out well.

    Those services to me are really annoying. I just want to send my girlfriend a love letter and all of them wanted me to sign up. But…

    I found one that was pretty good. http://www.tylergram.com its really easy and simple (and she loved it) she thought it was directly from me because it was handed stamped and everything. woot!
