What is an eCard?:

An E-card is a postcard, sent by means of the Internet, usually through email. A users sending an e-card to a person would select a pre-written card style with image and message, and would add their own personal message, and specify the recipient's email address. On sending the card, the recipient would receive an email with a link to the e-card provider's webpage, and this link would go to the e-card as a webpage, with the sender's personal message and card. There are 5 types of e-cards (flash, postcards, animated ecards, javascript cards, and talking greeting cards) and flash animation cards are the most popular. Originally, most E-Cards were free. While free greeting card sites are still the most prevalent and popular, most of the largest e-card sites on the web have begun charging for premium services and has slowly become a more accepted practice.
