10,000,000 registered postcards!

ana and paulo at the photomaton

You did it: 10,000,000 registered postcards! Wow, that is... a lot of postcards! :)

Thank you once again for all the postcards you send, and for your continuing support to this project!

In case you are curious (and we know you are!), lucky postcard 10 million was sent by member maru_jp in Japan, and was registered today, at 16:56 by huckabiene in Germany.

The member who got closer to the correct time was Solkadot! Congratulations, you're the winner of our 10 million contest, and you will receive a pack of 120 postcards, from MOO!

Both the sender and the receiver of the lucky 10 millionth postcard will also receive a pack of 20 postcards and a stickerbook!

We'd like to give a big thank you to MOO, who sponsored this contest and showered our participants with gifts!

And now... on to the next million, shall we?

so in its own way, Postcrossing is helping the economy, 10 million postcards had to be printed, shipped to stores, bought, and then stamps bought too. That is more than a few dollars being spent!

@honeybee; remeber that the time (16:56) is UTC/GMT, which means 17:56 in Austria.

I believed the time was 18:00, or maybe 17:59 when it was registered, but maybe it's was a delay in the system? or our clocks not beeing in sync with the postcrossing clock??
