Go old school, send postal letters with email using Postful
Let's take a step back in time, no wait lets just stay in the present...Email, post, email, post. Who's kidding who, why would we dream about sending a letter in the post and have to pay for postage when we can just send an email? How much do stamps cost nowadays anyways? And where exactly is the closest postal outlet? It seems like there is no sense in arguing over the fact that email is the best communication method these days, why would we ever think about sending a letter through the postal service? But, what about if you didn't have email?
Posful is betting on the fact that many people still don't use email, (apparently 65 million Americans) and that we know people who can't receive any. So the team at Posful has come up with a solution to bridge the gap between the physical and digital worlds. Send an email to a special unique address with the subject line as the mailing address, and its gets outputted into a printed piece and mailed out at the other end. Total cost, $.99 for one page full color, printing, mailing and postage included.
It seems like a great offering if you have connections that don't have an email address. By taking the trip down to the postal office right out of your task list it ensures you don't neglect those sitting at home without a connection to the World Wide Web.

Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet.
They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...

Thanks for the post!
Postful is still in closed beta right now, but we're adding features and getting the stability issues worked out (I know, contradictory aims) so that we can move to the public release soon. I'll let you know when we open things up.
