Sure, we all like to email.  But there is still the need to use snail mail.  In many ways the popularity of the Internet has increased the use of postal delivery.  Think about all the fulfillment of ordered products.

Along comes an interesting marketing ploy by the USPS (postal service) - you can make your own customized stamps! This means you can use your own picture or image, customize it with a tag line and so forth. It's real postage. Yes, there's a bit of a markup, but it might really be worth it.

There are a few companies that are officially partnered with the Postal service who offer the stamps and help you create them.

Check out Zazzle, PictureItPostage and Stamps.com as examples.
