may send a few but generally send mine via e - mail. quicker, easier and cheaper in today's world.

I have a brother and my kids. Everyone else is gone to the great beyond. No, I no longer send any greetings by any snail mail or otherwise.

Yes Larry I still send out greetings and thank you cards and letters. It's the only time I get to use my lovely fountain pen which I've had for years.

The art of handwriting is disappearing fast so it's nice to put pent to paper and wish someone seasons greetings.

I also like to receive them.

Yes, I send out a few holiday cards, as well as birthday cards. I think it is much more personal. The person receiving it knows you thought enough of them to take the time to send a special wish just for them. I love getting cards and letters in the mail.

My wife sends the cards. I send letters of personal greeting to those with whom I am close. I do not believe in obligation cards. If someone doesn't care about me 364 days a year but has me on a holiday list, I simply put the card in the recycle bin.

Just a few to my favorite people. The US Postal Service and I are not friends so I avoid using them whenever possible. And I keep in close touch with most of the people I care about anyway, the few cards I send out are more just for, well, now I'm not sure what or why. There are a few people I do always send cards to, maybe just a handful of people though.

Yes.

I don't do computer cards or social sites either. IMHO, Facebook and others are full of people with narcissistic personality disorder and I choose not to be a part of that scene. (I prefer to spend time talking about "ME!" lol).

I think sending a snail mail card demonstrates more of an effort to wish them MC..

I will definitely be sending Holiday cards this year.
I think this year I may do Eid--last year was Chanukah. I am a non-discriminating Holiday person.
I probably have 20 people to send cards to this year.

I send hundreds of cards throughout the year. I probably address over 100 Christmas cards alone, each year. I love snail mail! I send cards for all those unknown holidays, too. I tell the recipients that it beats getting a bill in the mail anyday!

my relatives (who used to add a letter in their card) stopped sending holiday cards about 10 years ago, and as of 6 years ago stopped acknowledging holiday emails too. So why should i bother? The answer is no.

I have no idea what your link is about, I don't do links. Last I heard YA didn't want them either.
