We’re proud to announce a new Postcrossing!

It’s been a long ride, with over a year of development, design and testing, but here it is, with a fresh face and some cool new features:

• Avatars
• Google maps integration
• Inactive state (for when you go on holidays)
• Invite your friends easily
• Check out members near you
• More ways to arrange your data
• A blog, to keep you posted on the latest news and events
• Improved address selection

The best feature of all is actually hidden underneath Postcrossing. Paulo re-coded the whole system, which means from now onwards it will be much easier to include new features! Got a suggestion? Let us know!

We’re really pleased with the result, and we hope you are too. Enjoy!
