I really like the diversity and convenience of ecards. I don’t think the days of this system are completely numbered. Rather, certain companies will be avoided because of spam and others will grow exponentially. I also sense that unless people are willing to say who the card is from (i.e. use their real name or one recognizable to the receiver), then, people will simply continue to delete spam as they already do. I like to be the optimist[:-)]

I was a little worried in responding to this add with all the crazy people with trick web sites and virus, but email is great for business, but we all are real people at the end of the day, and when we get home and open your mailbox after all the bills and stuff it is nice to open a card from some one that says
I miss you!

Yes, the spammers have ruined it for those who use cards for a personal touch in business or in their family life. There were/are so many neat e-cards out there. However, I never open any unless I am absolutely sure it’s from someone I know. Now that I think of it, I realize that friends who regularly sent me e-cards no longer do.

Yep – 37 in the last 2 weeks. Also from a worshipper, partner, family member, colleague even one of my neighbours (spelled Aussie style) got in on the act. I’d be wary of ever opening an e-card.
