I have no idea how I missed this one, but miss it I did. Last month I looked at a couple of e-card sites but only recently discovered what is now my favorite - someecards.com. It certainly isn't because of the wide range of design styles [there is one style, period], but because it's funny as hell.
Created by two ad agency guys, someecards.com looks as though it's trying to fly under the radar with its low-key, distinctly unflashy site - but they aren't fooling anyone. Click on the small 'press' link in the bottom right-hand corner and you'll see it's been featured everywhere, and although there is just the tiniest bit of 'we're too cool for school' about it, I do think it's really, really clever.
The site is easy to use - just enter the text and recipient info [screen shot above]. The message as it appears to the recipient is a bit hard to see [screen shot below] - and I wish the message was rendered directly on the card, as I've seen on some other sites. I guess I'll just have to settle for hysterically funny desert-dry wit in the meantime.
Here are some of my favorites:
