MyPunchbowl Launches Ecard Creator
Boston-based MyPunchbowl has announced the launch of their eCard Studio today. The eCard Studioallows you to customize the cards by changing the color, font, text and the ability to add your own photo to the card.
eCards can be shared via Facebook and Twitter — the Twitter sharing seems unique. MyPunchbowl notes that they have hundreds of designs to select from. I like the collaborative ideas I’ve seen with the picturebooks I’ve reviewed over the past week. Perhaps that’s something for an online card creator to think about. The "office" cards work pretty well and with all of the "friends" online, could work well in this new media age as well. Would be pretty cool to get a birthday card signed by 50 of my online friends.
With all of the free eCard providers online, it will be interesting to see if MyPunchbowl’s eCard Studio can make any headway into the pack. I assume they will be able to get traction from their current userbase but getting past that will take a lot of effort.
Here’s a demo of the eCard Studio from MyPunchbowl CEO Matt Douglas:
i think they will need to get bought by evite to gain traction. evite is not much of an innovator so maybe they will want to purchase mpb. this is a stretch though.
