I'm really interested in the logistics for a service like this. In fact, taking any kind of digital content and massively putting it offline is fascinating to me.
Is there a 3rd party service you use to send data via an API and you get back all the postcards? Do you do it yourself with an expensive printer?
I've had lots of ideas in the past similar to this, I never had the resources to follow through. Interested!
- scraplab 16y agoI'm one of the co-founders of Newspaper Club (http://www.newspaperclub.com/ http://www.newspaperclub.com/), so I've got a little bit of experience in this area. Honestly, there's nothing special to it. Pushing atoms around is hard work, but there's thousands of years of technology designed for it. It's boring legwork calling and visiting logistics companies, fulfilment houses, and printers, trying to find the right combination of expertise, location, attitude, and so on. But it's also what most traditional manufacturing businesses do all day long - us web folk have it easy. There's lots of people out there to help, but they don't appear in Google.
