SendSocial integrates with Facebook

SendSocial (Skywrite) - 05 July 2010

SendSocial integrates with Facebook

SendSocial (http://sendsocial.com), the web service that allows address-less delivery, has announced that they have brought in support for Facebook.

 

SendSocial launched in November 2009, allowing users to send packages with just the email address or Twitter name of their intended target, but the service now includes support for Facebook IDs.

 

Jonathan Grubin, CEO, SendSocial said:  ?As we move into the second decade of the 21st century, it?s ridiculous that I cannot simply write someone?s email address on the front of a letter and drop it in a postbox. SendSocial is the first step towards making that a reality, and we are looking to integrate with as many social media channels as possible.?

 

SendSocial was established in March 2009 by serial entrepreneur, and star of Channel 4?s ?Secret Millionaire?, Ben Way. His management team was found and hired entirely via Twitter.

 

In May 2009, SendSocial signed a deal with ByBox, to provide secure person-to-person deliveries across their network of 3,500 nationwide drop boxes.

 

About SendSocial

Send anything, anywhere, without an address

SendSocial is a web service that allows individuals to exchange physical mail, without ever having to disclose their addresses to each other.

 

SendSocial is the brainchild of serial entrepreneur Ben Way, best known for his appearance on Channel 4's "Secret Millionaire".

 

In March 2009, Ben sent out a message on Twitter, asking for feedback on an idea of his - a system that would allow individuals to send and receive real items from people they didn't necessarily want to share their personal details with. Keen entrepreneurs responded and from there SendSocial was born.
