    Letterfu.com - A New Approach To Snail Mail

    letterfu

    It is quite peculiar how something that can easily succeed an older practice might actually give it a new lease of life. The Letterfu website is a case in point. Basically, Letterfu is an online service that makes for writing letters and sending them via standard mail procedures – but dispensing with envelopes, cutting or glue.

    This system is implemented as follows. First, you choose a letterfu design from the many on offer and print it out into a sheet of paper. Then, you write the letter itself on the reverse. After adding the address, you fold the letter using the instructions included on the letterfu design and then stamp it and drop in the nearest letterbox.

    The advantages and reasons for picking out a letterfu folding letter are evident. They are easy to print, come with lively and attractive designs, and they are as light as they come. This makes them ideal for international mail. Also (as the site correctly points out), a letter is much more poignant and personal than any electronic from of communication. As such, it is the best way for getting in touch with someone you haven’t spoken to in while.

    In their own words

    “Letter-writing without envelopes, cutting or glue.”

    Why it might be a killer

    People will relish the opportunity of sending somebody they care about a letter in such a hassle-free manner.

    Some questions

    Is there any degree of customization as far as designs are concerned? Can I submit a design for the company to include on the website?
