Gone are those days when you had to run
from pillar to post to send a few greeting to your friends. The time when you
had to browse for hours through your address book jotting down long mailing
addresses of people to send cards to; and of course the fear that you card might
not even reach your beloved on time or worse even get lost in the mail. Sure enough
the IT revolution has made some things very simple. You can keep on delaying
card sending till the last moment and still be sure that the card will reach in time. Send them in the nick of
time and send plenty - all thanks to the mass-mailing feature offered on popular
e-greeting sites. E-card sites have undertaken a complete make over-each site
giving its own collection of animated and colorfulcards along with Sound and music and other rich features.
With research into hardware that can induce smells, it may be expected that the
typical lovebirds might give up 'old' habits soon.
Since the explosion of portals, e-greeting
sites have been popping out from every nook and cranny of the web. Now one can
even design his or her own e-cards sites by using services like Barvenet. The
choice of e-greeting services varies from region to region to region. Alone with
being related to regional identity, this fact also depends on the internet speed
and available PC technologies.
