Sending your family postcards from your honeymoon to thank them for all their help with your wedding is a sweet idea, but schlepping to the local post office in a far flung locale (and figuring out the cost of postage in foreign currency) is, frankly, a hassle. But, if you have an iPhone you're in luck! Simply Postcards has created an app that allows you to mail your real photos as postcards. Simply choose the photo you want to use from your phone, write a message, and provide the names and addresses of who the postcard should be sent to, and Simply Postcards will print it, stamp it, and mail it the next day. To pay, purchase "credits" to your account that they'll use for shipping. The app is free to download and you get your first postcard free (after that they start at $1 each). Now you really don't have an excuse not to write. —Leigh Crandall
