What’s Postful? What Do You Do?
March 16, 2007
What are we? We are exactly two things.
First, we are the fastest way to send a letter. We are a way of sending snail mail straight from your favorite e-mail application.
Second, we are a cubby of mailboxes, so that someone sending e-mail can treat a physical mail address just like any other e-mail address.
Let me give an example. Let’s say that you wanted to send photos from your last vacation to your entire mail list. Your grandmother would really like to see them, but she either doesn’t have an e-mail address or doesn’t check it that often. Just sign up, and create a mailbox for her, calling it, say, ‘granma@postful.com’ and then include that address on any mailing list.
One advantage of this is that once you create a mailbox for your grandmother at ‘grandma@postful.com’ , then anyone can reach her by that e-mail address. Instantly, she just got connected.
So, for example, you could create a Postful mailbox for yourself and distribute your address to others to reach you by.
