Create and Send Physical Postcards with Postino


Postino Facebook AppEver thought of creating and sending physical postcards of your own choice to anywhere in the world? Now you can do this from your iPhone, Windows Mobile or from your Facebook Account. Postino is a Facebook app that enables you to create and send physical postcards worldwide. Physical postcards are delivered printed on high quality paper. There’s whole lot of options to create physical postcards using Postino, these can be made with your custom photos (uploaded from the PC or from the Facebook albums) and messages. What I really loved about the app was the range of experimentation you can perform on postcards, photos can be cropped, zoomed and positioned inside an optional frame (themes include some seasons, Christmas, Easter, Kids party, New born, Love and more). The app is very straightforward and fast to use (everything is done via AJAX, so no page reloads and post-backs).

Postino was originally developed for iPhone and basking on huge success, the owners decided to launch the Facebook version. The iPhone version however offered some additional features like the ability to send e-cards in addition to physical cards, draw a signature with your finger on the touchscreen, and include your GPS position with a link to Google Maps) available on the App. These things of course wouldn’t have been possible in Facebook version. So, the guys at Angurialab made the Facebook and iPhone versions to communicate with each other which meant that you could buy some stamps from either the Facebook or the iPhone version, and then share the stamps between the two apps…so that you use the iPhone while on the go, and Facebook once at home. To add more diverse range of platforms to Postino, a Windows Mobile edition is has also been launched recently enabling users to create and print your own custom stamps from iPhone, Windows Mobile or using Facebook.
