Social media makes connections among people more and more convenient, people can send a message or online greeting cards on social networks in various festivals or holidays instead of sending paper cards. Once a staple, paper greeting cards are fewer and farther, now seen as something special, instead of something required. Electronic greeting cards get more and more popular in recent years.


How Has Social Media Affected the Greeting Card Forms?

The simple answer is that it has changed their behavior as much as other technologies. The biggest change to greeting cards is the transition from cards bought in stores to ones bought online. A lot of pundits say the card market is declining. That social media is putting it out of business. On the surface that is a really logical conclusion. Greeting cards are about connection, people are doing that cheaply and easily online. Sending a heartfelt message on Facebook or Twitter is a great way of communicating.
