#2The design looks great.
However, handwritten makes me think that you can "draw" your own message via the mouse rather than typing. I was only allowed to type.

ah, your typed message will be handwritten by a real human and posted in the mail ;)

#5I'm not sure it's any more personal to have your card be handwritten by a stranger.
For friends and family, a card or a personal letter is really worth taking the time over. For bonus points, you could even make the card yourself.

It would be great if you could give us a share on twitter - This is an epic quest, the more the merrier :)

I have a web start up that enables people to send handwritten greeting cards without an address. We have made it as cheap and easy as possible to help people send hand written cards to each other - It's a fun and meaningful way to connect with people. Everyone loves christmas cards right?

Hi Ben, We are not trying to be insincere, we want to do something fun for everyone :)

#9You say 'fun and meaningful'. I hear 'unnecessary waste of paper'.
You're capitalizing on something that is actually harmful at the scope of the planet and race.

There's no privacy statement on the Xmas page, you might want to add one. There is a link to one on the main website. [1]
The statement mentions the product containing ads and sharing information with ad networks. Nowhere else do I see anything about that on your web site.
You also want to use the addresses later on, not just to send one free card. Customers should know that.
"We use information held about you in the following ways: […] to provide you with information, products or services that you request from us or which we feel may interest you, where you have consented to be contacted for such purposes"
And if I don't give out the address for the person I'd like you to send a card to, you'll make him sign up too:
"We will mail your card as soon as your friend updates their address information at Bfore."
So, thanks for the offer but I'll pass.
