When the Postcrossing project was launched 4 years ago, no one would guess that it could ever reach one million postcards. But it did, and, we have just reached 3 times that! What a milestone! Three million postcards! Three million connections! Three million smiles! We couldn’t be prouder of being part of this project.
And, this couldn’t be reached without every single member of Postcrossing, so a big thank you to you all for making it happen!
But, we know many of you are anxiously waiting to know who were the lucky members that exchanged this special postcard. So without further delays:
The postcard 3 million travelled from arjakos in Finland, to klemko in Slovenia! Congratulations to both for being part of such an important milestone in Postcrossing!
And, finally, congratulations Sara-Gandalf (from Slovenia!) – you are the lucky winner of our contest by being the first to guess correctly the countries involved on this unique postcard.
The winner of the contest, the sender and receiver of the postcard 3 million will receive aerogrammes packs kindly offered by the folks behind Int’l Girl Aerogrammes. If you aren’t one of the the lucky ones, be sure to check their website – their aerogrammes are designed with love, come in different languages and are printed in recyclable paper. Each aerogramme is a little piece of art that takes your message directly to those you love. Can you tell how much we love them?
Shall we start the countdown to the postcard 4 million? :)

Congratulations...
what a great gift . It's nice to learn about these wonderful websites through postcrossing.
Congrats to the winners!
I just did some quick calculations and, if we keep the current pace we have going, we should reach 4 million approximately the 2nd last week of December. But the pace is gaining speed rather than staying static, is that right Paulo?
Congratulations!!!
Thanks to everybody also from my side!!
Best wishes!

Congratulations to Postcrossing, and to all the winners! 3 million! who would have thought it possible for people to write actual notes on a card and mail it. - No texting skills needed!
Hell yeah! It's amazing!
Fabulous, gr8! Excelent and postcrossing is the winner! conG to arjakos in Finland for sending and to klemko in Slovenia for registering as exactly number 3,000,000!
Brilliant!
At what time exactly it took place???
Tomorrow we are ready for Up to the 4!
Celebrate today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats! That's sooooooooo amazing!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations...3 million postcards, how would that looks like when you put them all together.
I had so much fun yesterday on the PC forum during the countdown and I did make it to the "screen shot" , but didn't win :). So many people where trying to register their cards at the same time...amazing!!
Congratulations to arjakos and klemko for 3 million worth of fun. So much fun counting down and being part of the fun on the forum. I am glad I am part of this project.
Thank you everyone! :)
@dollart: You can see the dates of 1st and 2nd million on our history page: http://postcrossing.com/about/history
@Lori45P: It's hard to say when exactly the 4th million will be. But yes, it is speeding up. So I would expect the 4th million to be in less than 7 months! :)
Oh my god!!I posted Usa to Taiwan, well the postcard number: 2.999.998 :(
I hope to win, the next countdown :)
Congratulations!
Can't wait for the next million! ;)
Good news!!!! Congratulations!!!!!!
:)
Wonderful.....Extremely wonderful....Congratulations to all of us....I am very happy to be a part of this :).
It would be great to see a picture of Paulo holding 3 million postcards in his hands LOL (without him none of these postcards would have been sent).Together towards to 4 million.....10 million.......1 billion.....?
Congratulations :-) Happy Postcrossing to everyone
Congratulations to everyone and many thanks to Paulo - and to everyone else who works with him to make Postcrossing such fun!
Congratulations now I'm wondering how this postcard looks like...
Congrats! :)
We did it! ;D
Amazing! And we are all part of it ;-)
Congratulations to the winners!!!
Hello everybody!
It´s amazing!! Many thanks to everyone who has sent the message to me...I nearly cried when I read those messages! Yesterday was my lucky day with Klemen and OF COURSE with all postcrossers!!
Best wishes, Arja
Congratulation to everyone who sent a postcard, it's a great target!
wooohooooo! congrats everyone who made postcrossing get to that number (and, sure, specially to the one who send the 3-millionth card. heheh)
this is very cool... when I joined the site, it was "almost" getting to 2 mil... that was fast! :)
For anyone interested, a stack of 3 million postcards would (based on an average size of 4"x6"), and covering an area on the ground of 2 feet x 1-1/4 feet would reach approximately 977 feet into the air, which is the same height as the Sutro Tower in San Francisco (www.sutrotower.org)
: - )
@FemkeDorien: Here you can see it: http://www.postcrossing.com/postcards/FI-637138
Since we're getting more and more members daily, provided the older members continue to Postcross, the growth rate should be exponential! =D
Thanks to everyone, especially Paulo, for creating this wonderful project!
To think that the count from 2 million to 3 million postcards is achieved within 1 year, it's amazing, isn't it? I think we should raise the bar from 3 million to 6 million this time and see how fast it will take to get to the number :)
Way to go, Postcrossing!
Hip Hip Huray! To the winners ánd all of us, Postcrossers! Let's hope that this project wil become bigger and bigger and make us all realise that the world and his people are so wonderfull..
Congrats!!! :))
