ChrisK at Gliffy writes about a new service which will scan and forward postal mail via email. Using Earth Class Mail they can route email to the right person without maintaining and staffing a physical office space.
On the personal side, it would be awesome to never see another pile of mail on my kitchen table; however, the kitchen table eventually will always get cleared off whereas my inbox just scrolls away….
This seems like a great solution for small businesses, where there is no need for a physical office when you are just starting up.
