Hey! I built one of those too! http://postcard-pals.com/

high five

Dude or dudette!! Awesome!!

We should totally chat about it sometime. Are you seeing a lot of people using it?

Dude is correct. def! you can find me here @roykolak. No not many users, tho just lunched it a week or so ago. You can read about the motivation here: blog.milkshake-island.com/post/75288447289/building-for-the-right-reasons

I really liked your blog post! Yeah literally only one person has ordered a card from mine besides family and friends. Interesting that you're also sending Lob a custom back, I'm just using their standard one and sending them the data.

Mine also works on mobile, does yours?

I don't think there's much demand unfortunately for postcards that weren't handwritten which is the sad thing.

This is absolutely true and for me, it was a real shocker. I developed an extension called Better History. Before the redesign, I had 500 active users.

On the day of the redesign, installs skyrocketed. Everyday since has seen a 2,000 to 3,000 user increase. At the moment it's up to 11,000.

I did prepare some promotions that I think really helped get Better History some face time.

These are the promotions: http://automagical.posterous.com/three-promotions-for-better... - I think it's important to note that these three banners offer a much better idea of what you're installing than just the icon by itself.

That may also be the case for Handcraft, as our banners show the code editor. Before last week we got some people signing up and asking "What is this?" as if they weren't aware it was a HTML prototyping tool. Now the questions are of a different nature. I wonder if that's because the banner is more upfront about what the app is.
