Very cool use of a QR code from some cool innovators. I blogged about Postagram back around Valentine's, noting that cards could also be shared via social media: Postcards From the Social Media Edge. Now not only does that get easier, but it's got built-in confirmation, too. Sweet.

Postagram should have used pixlinQ (mobile visual search) powered by LTU technologies instead of QR codes!!

@Jeremy – i agree most implementations of QRs are not well thought out – and very clumsy. And I like Herbert Bay’s approach. When his approach becomes more popular (mobile scanning SDKs, etc) we’d definitely consider using it. Either way – connecting physical to digital is something that we entrepreneurs need to solve – it is just way too valuable & interesting to ignore

Thanks Ryan. We’re excited to see our customer’s response to these new features. With the QR stamp, we are basically making an existing behavior we were already seeing among users, easier & integrated into the app. We’re also excited to see Sincerely customers surprise each other with cards when they use Sincerely magic. Great write-up
