WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., May 7 /PRNewswire/ -- With just four days to go until
Mother's Day, children, grandchildren, spouses and extended families will rush
to send out electronic greeting cards that recognize the mothers in their
lives.
According to the Greeting Card Association, more than 500 million eCards
were sent worldwide in 2007. eCards allow people to send warm sentiments to a
wider net of family members than they would traditionally remember to send
with paper. In fact MyFunCards, a leading eCard site, expects a 25-40 percent
increase in demand for their Mother's Day eCards this year (compared to 2007).
eCards are great time savers and last-minute problem solvers. They also
make it easy for users to expand their recipient lists to extended family and
friends all over the world (as long as they have an email address). Many
eCard services, like MyFunCards, allow users to personalize the eCard's
message, artwork, and other features, utilize animation, and even insert a
favorite photo or a video into the eCard.
"It is all about personal expression," said MyFunCards online greeting
card expert Tim Allen. "Mom's are such special people in our lives. There's
no better way to say and show exactly how you feel than with an eCard."
Websites like www.myfuncards.com help make telling mom you love her easy,
personal, and fun.
