Upload your holiday snaps while you’re still on holiday and Ballistic Blue will print them onto postcards and post them to your Gran for you.

UPDATE: Great minds think alike, it seems. PPMe operates the same kind of service – I think I prefer the front-end on this one because you don’t have to use the rubbish templates that Ballistic Blue seem to insist on

It’s missing a bit on my MacBook speakers, but so far sounds a worthy successor to ‘Boys & Girls…’
