This is genius. Via Adweek, e-cards that express heartfelt messages of thoughtlessness: "Congratulations on your baby if it was intentional." "Sorry my web browser history scared you." "I have no idea how people fill their time." "I'm intimidated by yo... [Read More]

I've seen cards just like that in someone's book before, from some creative guy in london. They said stuff like 'sorry you got mugged' and 'sorry you got burgled.' These take it a bit further though.

Hi,
saw your posting for someecards.com, and I thought you
might be interested in looking at the site they stole
their ideas from. The link is listed below.
Coloringbookland.com has been around for over 2 years
now, and is available as a book at most retailers
nationwide. Thanks for you time, just wanted to set
the record straight.

Hello everyone,
I saw the comments about e-Cards so I thought I would add a quick comment. There are so many people that don't really agree with sending e-cards, I think maybe they feel that it is a lazy way to send a greeting, and are more in favor of the traditional way of buying a 'real' card, and sticking a stamp on it and popping it in the post.
However, I think this is one of those cases of 'don't knock it till you've tried it', I am a fan of electronic greetings cards. A lot of my computer wiz kid mates introduced me to e-cards, and that is how I began using them. I think when you try something new, you are recommended it by word of mouth, and that is exactly what happened to me.
I have recently been sending my friends a Happy Birthday e-Card greeting when they are at work! They just said it was a really idea and that it brightens up their day. I have tried quite a lot of e-Card sites, and I have now found a really cool Free Happy Birthday Day e-Card site that I really like. This particular site has an awesome application where you can upload a photograph of yourself and incorporate it into your card. This is such a clever idea, and adds that personal touch, and as I already mentioned this particular site is totally free. I think e-Cards are definitely worth a try, they are not for everyone, but I am becoming a fan! Just wanted to share my findings with you all. Have a good rest of your afternoon, Nicole.
