Our "2 Cents" on Rising Stamp Prices

2009-07-25T08:48:00.001-07:00

So the price of US stamps has gone up again, this increase is 2 cents per stamp. Here's an article reporting the 2 cent increase. And Here's the History of US Stamp prices. This means that instead of paying 42 cents for a stamp, we're now paying 44 cents to mail a letter to your loved ones, friends, family or business colleagues. You'll also recall stamp prices going up 1 cent in May of last year as well (see our blog on that previous 1 cent increase).

It's not too hard to get someone to give you their 2 cents on things. Here are a number of sites where people freely offer up their 2 cents on a variety of topics ranging from life, politics, media, information, marketing, food, dolls, books, race cars, public relations, and just about anything else.

My 2 Cents - musings on marketing, media, public relations....and life.

2 Cents Worth - Teaching & learning in the new information landscape.

2 Cents for Change - Give your 2 cents, get back change.

My 2 Cents - Flex programming made easy.

If you are interested in our 2 cents, here you go. iwiLetter.com has NOT increased the cost of sending a letter so this means you save 2 cents every time you send a letter using iwiLetter! Why not save those pennies and send your next letter via iwiLetter.com. After all, a penny saved, can be a penny earned!

And that's our 2 cents on this!

Send your Sweatheart a Valentines Day Love Letter

2009-02-04T19:48:00.000-08:00

Fellas,

Valentine's Day is coming up just over a week, and we all know that for many of you, this is the first thought you've given to the "Big Day". Of course you're going to scramble to squeak in that last minute reservation at the new hip place in town. Of course she won't notice that the 10pm reservation was the very last one, and only one, they had available. She'll also probably think the "table for two" out by the valet was their most requested and hard to get table.

Dinner, in a word, is "covered". "Done", "taken care of", "whadoyoumeanIhaventthoughtaboutValentinesyet?", "I got it under control". Nice work!

However, why not go all out, and get all romantic this year. Why not send her a letter that shows her you've been thinking of her. Let her know she is the Apple of your Eye, the Jewel of your Crown, the One for You! Yeah, a Love Letter sounds great! But let us guess, you are no Danielle Steele when it comes to wordsmithing.

Dont' worry, we've got you covered. iwiLetter.com provides you with many Sample Love Letters that you can choose from. Pick the one that seems the closest to what you are trying to say to her, then edit it to make it your own. Or, well, just send it like it is. Let her know that your heart is her's, and you hope for her heart to be your's. Let her know that your life was like a dark night before, with only a few distant stars to light it, but that she came as a blazing comet and lit it up, rising over the horizon and streaking through.

Write your Sweatheart a Love Letter today!

Send her a Love Letter this Valentine's Day. Let her know you care. Let iwiLetter.com help, let our Sample Love Letters be the prose that guides your pen....and your evening ;)

Send "Snail Mail" from your Computer

2009-01-29T11:22:00.000-08:00

iwiLetter.com encourages you to send “snail mail” to your friends, family, and business colleagues. Really, it’s real physical snail mail, mail sent by actual snails! Boredom Research has created “RealSnailMail” http://www.boredomresearch.net/rsm/index.html, a service (ok, maybe “experiment” is a more accurate word than “service”) where little snails are equipped with a tiny electronic cicruit and antenna that receives messages. Users type a message right from their computer, that message is transmitted to one of several different snails, and then the waiting begins. Then the waiting continues, and continues. The waiting lasts until the snail finds it’s way across it’s living space to a “drop off” dispatch center receiver where the message is then electronically retrieved and sent along it’s way to the recipients email inbox.

What a novel concept, snail mail moving at a snail’s pace! You see, iwiLetter.com is not the only one out there using technology to make snail mail a reality for all of us in this increasingly fast paced and technical world.

“iwi” is pronounced “ee-We”, just like “kiwi”. So it’s like “Kiwi Letter” without the “K”.

iwiLetter.com is spelled correctly as “iwiLetter.com”, or “i-w-i-L-e-t-t-e-r-’dot’-c-o-m”. It’s NOT “kiwiLetter”, “kiwi Letter”, “kiwi-Letter”, “iwi-Letter”, or “iiwiiLetter”, “iiwii-Letter”, or “eweLetter”.

How to Write a Letter

2008-10-28T20:45:00.001-07:00

Sometimes you know you may need or want to send a letter to family member, friend or a business, but getting started or understanding the different components and aspects of writing a letter may not be clear to you. Wikihow.com provides a great general summary of "How to write a letter".

In the age of e-mail and cell phones, writing a letter may seem like an ancient ritual that is only practiced by those of earlier generations, but there are many personal and professional rewards to sitting down and expressing yourself with a written letter. Whether writing a quick note to a friend to say hello or composing a business letter to an authority figure, writing a letter shows effort, respect and care for others. Wikihow.com provides a great general summary of "How to write a letter"

http://www.wikihow.com/Write-a-Letter

1. Provide the context of the letter. Put all the information that the reader will want to know at the beginning of the letter, before you even begin to write the body. If you're writing to a close friend, you won't need much except the date, which will be good for if they save your letter and want to remember when they received it. If you're writing a business letter, on the other hand, the reader may not even know who wrote the letter (if an assistant threw the envelopes away before passing along the letters). The arrangement of this information depends on what kind of letter you're writing, but as long as you provide it neatly and completely, you should be fine:
-Your address, sometimes including contact information; some people prefer to write this out at the bottom of the letter, under the signature and printed name. This can also go at the top as letterhead.
-The recipient's name, address, contact information; in business letters, this can be referred to as the "inside address"; if you don't know the recipient's title (Ms., Mrs., Mr., or Dr.) err on the side of caution--use Ms. or Dr. if you think it might apply;use your country's address format; if the inside address is in a country other than yours, write their country's name in capital letters as the last line.
-The date
-A subject line, usually beginning with "RE:" (e.g. RE: Graduation application #4487)

2. Start with a proper greeting. The opening should begin at the left side of the page, not the middle or up against the right side of the sheet. The most common opening is "Dear" followed by the person's first name and a comma. For a more casual greeting, you can write "Hello (name)," or "Hey (name)," but if the letter is more formal, use the recipient's last name and a colon instead of a comma (e.g. "Dear Mr. Johnson:". Sometimes, if you don't know the recipient's name, you can write "To Whom It May Concern:" If you don't know the person's gender, write out their full name (e.g. Dear Ashley Johnson:).

3. Write an opening paragraph. Tailor your opening to the recipient. For example, if the letter is casual, you can begin with, "What's up?" or "How's it going?". Otherwise, a simple "How are you?" is fine. If it is a business letter, go straight to explaining why you are writing the letter. Summarize your intentions and be sure to write clearly so the reader will understand you.

4. Construct the body of the letter. This is the part that will really be unique to each letter. Most business letters should be no more than two pages long, but casual letters can be as long or as short as you want them to be. No matter who you're writing to, try not to ramble. Keep each paragraph engaging.

5. Use the closing paragraph to indicate the type of response you are seeking. If you would like a letter in return, you can write, "Please write when you have a chance" or, if you prefer a phone call/email, write "Call me soon." or "Email me some time".

6. Include a closing such as "Love always" ,"Cheers", "Sincerely", "Talk soon", or "Look forward to seeing you soon". Again, choose your closing based on the recipient. The closing can be aligned on the left or the right side of the page. In business letters, stick with "Regards," or "Respectfully," and sign your name underneath. Then print your name under the signature.

7. Address your envelope. Your address should be written on the front of the envelope in the upper left hand corner or on the back. The recipient's address must be on the front of the envelope, right in the middle. Fold your letter in any way you would like, but just be sure that it will fit into the envelope. Put your letter in the envelope, seal it, stamp it and send it off. <-- iwiLetter.com will handle this part of it for you ;)

Wikihow.com also provides specific information and instructions to follow when writing specific kinds of letters, whether they are Complaint Letters, Business Letters, Personal Letters, Job Resignation Letters, etc. For example:

Complaint Letters
There is no reason for consumers to be unhappy with the goods and services they receive. A respectful and thoughtful, though forceful, Complaint Letter/letter of grievance can turn a lemon into lemonade. How to do it is covered here, covering things like:
-Be polite! Being rude won't get you anywhere.
-Keep on point and get to the point fast.
-State specifically what outcome or remedy you want.
http://www.wikihow.com/Write-a-Complaint-Letter-to-a-Company/

Job Resignation Letters

One of the greatest secrets of career success is knowing when to move on. With the right resignation letter, you will do so with satisfaction and leave on good terms with your previous employer. For example:-Say thank you. Resist the temptation to leave a piece of your mind.-Give proper notice. It is simple courtesy.Wikihow also gives Tips and Warnings to following when writing a Resignation Letter, for example:-Do not discuss your resignation with co-workers.-Keep any emotion out of the letter. Avoid the temptation to tell off your boss, spreading mistrust, etc. http://www.wikihow.com/Write-a-Resignation-Letter

Letters to Government Officials

Wikihow.com even provides a 'How To' guide on Writing a Letter to a Government Official. How often have we been advised to 'write our Congressmen' when we're up to our armpits in some sort of dilemma or challenge such as mammoth-sized pot-holes, funky school lunches, or runaway drug costs for senior citizens? So now you've decided to take action and ask for help from your Uncle Sam (or local Alderman). Good for you, let's get started!http://www.wikihow.com/Address-a-Letter-to-a-Government-Official

Well, there's some How, Why, and Who about writing and sending letters. Let's get started writing letters now! iwLetter.com not only provides the quick and easy way to send a real letter online, we also provide Sample Letters to help you get started! http://iwiletter.com/loadsampleletter.html

Send Real Letters to Prisoners, Become Pen Pals

2008-07-29T19:13:00.000-07:00

Do you have a family member or loved one in prison that you want to communicate with? Phone calls and visitations are few and far between so why not send them a letter? Imagine the hours and hours alone a prisoner must spend each day. Wouldn't a letter from a loved one brighten up their day? A letter is something a prison inmate can read, save, and re-read over and over again...it's something that can remind them of home, family, friends and loved ones....something they can use to "get away" from the countless hours isolated and by themselves.

Even if you don't know someone currently in prison, why not become Pen Pals with a prison inmate, brighten their days and make yourself feel better in the process. Getting to know someone in circumstances that are completely different than your own can be very interesting and rewarding.

WriteaPrisoner.com is a site that allows people to find prisoners that have indicated they are available and interested in starting a pen pal relationship. Some great info about becoming pen pals with an inmate can be found HERE. There are tips for writing to prisoners, some ideas of what to write about, some expectations of what you may experience, etc.

Here's a list of sites that help you find a Prison Pen Pal, via Yahoo! Directory .

Send a Letter, Make it Official!

2008-06-24T19:48:00.000-07:00

Dealing with business issues, credit or tax issues, rental correspondence, or formal complaints? Send a letter, and make a more official statement. Phone calls and emails are easily ignored or deleted. Letters make a statement and impact.

Consider the last time you received a jury summons or court sopaena. It came as a letter, and you paid attention to it didn't you? Coincidence? What about that IRS audit you got in the mail....you opened it and took action, right? When you want to get in touch with the Editor of your local newspaper, you sent a letter to the Editor, right? How about that $30,000 loan you just found out you are all of a sudden approved for, came as a letter right? And how did you find out whether or not you were getting an IRS Rebate check this year.....well, at least the first couple million of you until they realized mailing out a hundred million letters just to inform us about a forthercoming check cost a lot of money. Anyway, they sent out letters, didn't they?

Emails just get deleted or lost in the sea of your thousands of other emails. Voice mails and phone calls just interupt you in the middle meeting, or you end up being "that guy" with the bluetooth ear piece walking around making everyone think you are talking to them. Face to face conversations only end with an awkward pause, or one person telling the other to go do something.

You've heard of the "poor man's copyright", right? If you write a song, a story, a poem, or anything you want to copyright and be able to legally show that you created it on or before a certain date, just simply mail the lyrics, CD, tape or whatever it is to yourself via the US Postal Service and leave it un-opened. The Postmark Date will be on the envelope and will show that you created it's contents on or before that date.

Next time you have something important to communicate, send them a real letter. Send them an iwiLetter!

Is Anything FREE in this World Anymore?

2008-05-10T05:26:00.000-07:00

Sometimes you get the feeling that there just isn't anything free in this world anymore, right? It seems that every day we are dealing with hidden fees and charges, rising gas pricing, falling stock prices, scams, the weakening U.S Dollar, more work, less pay, tighter budgets, shrinking profits, "increased costs of doing business", housing crunch, etc. The list goes on and on. It's hard enough to keep our head above water, much less even think about saving money or taking a vacation, and you can certainly forget about any chance of getting something for free, right? Is anything FREE in this world anymore?

Of course there is! iwiLetter.com (send real letters, write online) is offering a free month of service during the entire month of May. It's our "Memorial Day Mail Call". Just visit iwiLetter.com/Military and type your letter. We'll print it on reclyced paper, stuff it, stamp it with a first-class stamp, and mail it anywhere in the U.S. (including U.S. Soldiers currently overseas) within 24 hours, for FREE! It's our way of saluting the U.S. Military and their families this Memorial Day, it's our Memorial Day Mail Call!

There are even sites online that profile tons of free stuff each and every day! Check them out:

http://www.topsavings.com/ (formerly called TotallyFreeStuff.com)
http://www.thefreesite.com/
http://www.free-stuff.com/

So clearly, there are things that are still free. Take advantage of them!

However, this all comes at a very sad and strange time when something critically needed is being offered for free, but is not being accepted. The U.S. and U.N. are eagerly trying to freely give aid and resources to the people of Myanmmar who desperately need the help after suffering from a catostrophic cyclone. Their government however does not currently appear to be accepting or allowing this aid and help to reach the people in desperate need. Of course they must have their reasons, it's just frustrating to think something is free and readily available, yet the "should be" accepting party is not interested.

In recognition of Memorial Day, on May 1 iwiLetter.com will launch our “Memorial Day Mail Call” campaign (http://iwiLetter.com/Military), which offers U.S. Military personnel and their families iwiLetter.com’s letter writing services free of charge during the entire month of May, plus the chance to win one year’s worth of free letter writing services. iwiLetter.com makes letter writing convenient by allowing users to type a letter online, and then handling the rest: printing the letter on recycled paper, placing it in a recycled envelope with a first-class stamp and mailing it through the U.S. postal service within 24 hours, including letters to U.S Soldiers overseas.

"We wanted to do something special for military personnel and their families this Memorial Day. Despite the ease and speed of e-mail, military personnel still need old-fashioned letter writing, whether it is for love letters, official business letters that demand formality or simply an appreciation for the art of letter writing. We just make letter writing and delivery more convenient.”

During the entire month of May, our standard $2 fee per letter will be waived in recognition of Memorial Day. To enter for a chance to win a free year of iwiLetter.com services, military personnel should visit http://iwiLetter.com/Military and or just click on the “Memorial Day Mail Call” banner on the top of the homepage for details. The winner will be notified via e-mail on June 1, 2008.

In addition to the convenience of iwiLetter.com, the website offers the benefit of speed. Military personnel stationed overseas often wait weeks for letters to reach their U.S. destination. But iwiLetter.com mails the letter within 24 hours from within the U.S. – ensuring a prompt delivery.

Earth Day - Recycled Paper

2008-04-23T21:58:00.000-07:00

Earth Day has just passed, and though it's not a day we celebrate in typical "Holiday" fashion per-se, it is a day that serves as a great way to reflect on our ability as a community of people to at least be aware of and make a conscious effort to reduce the impact of our being a part of this planet, and eco-system. It may be naive to think that 6.65 Billion (as of March 2008) people on any planet will not make some sort of impact. However, it is not naive to think that we cannot make efforts to reduce that impact.

iwiLetter.com ensures that we are doing our part by printing all of our letters and envelopes using recycled paper and recycled paper envelopes. We certainly believe that sending letters is a much more personable and professional means of communicating than email, texting, faxing, smoke signals, Morse code, voice mail, carrier pigeon, etc. So why not make sure that in addition to improving the effectiveness and influence of our letter writing customers, we're also doing our part to improve the quality of their life and environment? Heck, it's political campaign season, let's go ahead and make sure we're "improving the quality of life and environment for our children!?!" Wow, that felt good!

OK, back on track. China and India, with over 1 Billion people living in each country, make up over 30% of the world's population. With this many people in each of these two countries, it makes sense that a large number of them will find their way to the Unites States. We are glad to have them! They bring with them many hi-tech, manaufacturing, service and leadership skills and abilities. They are certainly a driving force in our US economy. They also have many family and friends still residing in their home countries that want to stay in touch with them. Mailing a letter from India or China is very costly, and very time consuming. It is expensive, and can take well over a week for a letter to reach the US from India or China. By visiting iwiLetter.com from anywhere in the world someone can type their letter online and have it printed in the US on recycled paper, stuffed in a recycled paper envelope with a first-class stamp, and within 24 hours it will be mailed anywhere in the US.

It is estimated that energy consumption is reduced by as much as 40-64% when paper is recycled (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_recycling). When it's understood that paper production account for nearly 40% of global wood harvesting (http://www.ecology.com/feature-stories/paper-chase/index.html) and represents 1.2% of the world's total economic output, it becomes clear the impact that we can each make by simply being aware of and encouraging prudent behavior.

Remember When?

2008-03-24T19:35:00.001-07:00

Remember years ago when it used to be exciting when you got an email? You sat down at your computer and it told you, "you've got mail", and you said, "oh man look, someone sent me an email!" You couldn't wait to open, read and respond to it. It was exciting, it was fun, it was new. However, time has passed, and the number of emails you now get every day has grown unmanageable. What used to be cool and fun to get, now becomes, "oh no! ANOTHER email I need to deal with". And this is AFTER you have all your spam and junk mail siphoned off.

Later in the day, you head out to your mailbox to see if your new Netflix has arrived. Yo get your mail and start going through it, "bill, bill, Netflix, credit card offer, credit card offer, Chinese menu, bill, bill, LETTER - to: ME, from: SOMEONE I KNOW!" That's the first thing you open up! It's then that you remember that you LOVE getting a letter from someone, and you realize that it's as simple as sending a letter to give someone else that same feeling of being loved, remembered, cared for, thought about, in love with, felt worthy of, important enough, etc. to send them a letter.

To say something in a letter; it just communicates more love to a family member or lover, shows more thought to someone that's been on your mind lately, creates more worth and value to an important customer, a letter thanks someone more deeply, and commands more respect from a business colleague or organization. And yes, a Letter will make you seem smarter than you really are!

OK, so you want to send someone a letter and give them that same joy you just experienced. Do you have a stamp lying around? What about an envelope? You know stamp prices keep going up, right? Are the stamps you have still the right price? Are you going to hand write this letter? Can YOU read your own handwriting? Will someone else be able to? OK, so let's type and print a letter.....oh wait, your printer doesn't have anymore ink does it?

Well, you're already sitting at your computer. Go ahead and visit iwiLetter.com, where you can "send real letters, write online". That's right, just visit iwiLetter.com and type your letter, we'll handle the rest. We'll print, stuff, stamp and mail your letter anywhere in the US! We even have a growing collection of sample letters (Love Letters, Thank You Letters, Business Letters, Happy Birthday Letters, etc) to help you get started writing!

Rejection Letter contest winner!

2008-03-06T20:54:00.000-08:00

The winner of iwiLetter’s Rejection Letter writing contest has been chosen…and they’ve Won a new 80GB iPod! Congratulations, Elizabeth O., you are the new Shakespeare of Rejection Letters!

iwiLetter.com’s Certified Rejection Letter Specialist Judges looked at the wall of submissions, uttered an explative and walked out of the building. Tempted back with the promise of glory and cocktails, they began their task, carefully pouring over each entry to choose a winner. It wasn’t easy, there was name calling and thumb-biting, but the judges have spoken.

Behold, the Winning Letter of the Rejection Letter Writing Contest!

*********************************

Dear Dude in the Sweater Vest,

Difficult though this may be for you to comprehend, I am not sexually excited by listening to you talk at length about your salary.

Before you arrived I was (somewhat) seriously and (mostly) diligently doing legal research between classes. I have now spent the past 30 minutes listening to your self-satisfied moronic chuckles, your repeated proclamations that you can’t believe they are paying you this much at the new firm, and not-so-subtle references to hedge funds.

If I actually hear you reference the “family name” again, I may vomit.

As you appear to be roughly six-foot, I can only imagine that you are overcompensating for reasons unrelated to your height.

If something about my behavior has led you to believe that I am engaged in this conversation, let me assure you that this is do merely to some misinterpretation on your part. If I appear to be enjoying myself, this is only because, as you may have noticed, my laptop is still open and my friends (they’re sitting on that couch just there, see them?) are making fun of you on instant message.

No, I am not interested in getting a drink. Shockingly, my weekend is absolutely packed. Moreover, I make a point of avoiding that bar you just suggested.

Also, I’m afraid that you lack the requisite sense of irony needed to rock that sweater vest, and I’m going to have to ask that you not do so in the future.

Hugs & kisses,

*********************************

Congratulations, Elizabeth! You’ve won the contest and a new 80GB iPod - what are you going to do next? Might we suggest you go the Eli Manning route and go to Disneyworld?

Remember MadLibs? We’ve created our very own MadLetter Generator and this winning Rejection Letter has become the template to the very first MadLetter. Play it Here then send it on to your friends!

A Penny Saved, Can Be a Fortune Earned!

2008-02-27T14:51:00.000-08:00

So it sounds like the price of US stamps will be going up 1 cent in May. Here's an article reporting the increase. This means that instead of paying 41 cents for a stamp, you'll be paying 42 cents to mail a letter to your loved ones or business colleagues. iwiLetter.com will NOT be increasing the cost of sending a letter so this means you'll be saving 1 cent everytime you send a letter using iwiLetter!

Think of the things that you can buy for 1 penny. Here's a list of things from Sav-On-Closeouts.com

2" Garfield stickers
2" Woody woodpecker Tattoos
Foam Smiley Face Rings
Plastic Graduation Toothpics
Neon Pencil-tip Erasers
Plastic Bat Rings
Decorative Fall Leaves
Glow in the Dark Spider Rings

Heck, here's an article from the New York Times that ponders "What Happens if a Penny is worth more than 1 cent?" due to the increased cost of metals.

Snopes seems to confirm that a penny costs more than 1 cent to manufacture.

You can even build wealth, 1 penny at a time. Check out PennySleuth.com for more info and some great ideas.

And for all you serious coin collectors out there, a history of the US Penny can be found on Wikipedia.

As you can see, you can get a LOT for 1 penny, you can probably even haggle with someone to give you 1.4 cents for a penny based on it's perceived value due to the cost of producing it. If you can get so much for a penny, when the cost of stamps goes up 1 cent why not save those pennies and send your next letter via iwiLetter.com since we won't be increasing our price for sending real letters online. After all, a penny saved, can be a Fortune earned!
