Send virtual cards and flowers - for free
Tip Sending cards to friends and relatives is as simple as heading to a site like that of Parsons Technology (http://www.parsonstech.com/cstudio/cardshop/). Choose a greeting card design, add a message, and type in your recipient's e-mail address. That person will then receive a message saying that there's an electronic greeting card waiting on the Parsons site. The e-mail service is free. The Internet Florist Association (http://www.virtualflorist.com) offers a similar service for people who want to send virtual flowers. Choose from a variety of arrangements ranging from the traditional roses to the otherworldly "Greetings from Roswell." An e-mail message will inform your recipient that they need only log on to the IFA's site to view the flowers and your greeting.  Virtual flowers may not smell like the real thing, but at least they don't need watering - Judy Heim | Category: Internet Issue: Mar 1998 Pages: 170 |
