NanaGram will mail prints of your photos to your grandparents every month

TwitterFacebook

Printing photos is making a comeback, with companies like Artifact Uprising and TurnGram encouraging users to bring their iPhone pics into — gasp — the physical realm.

One particularly pleasant service is NanaGram, which will mail 10 4×4 or 4×6 photos of your choice to your grandparents — or any relative, really, but it’s cutest to say grandparents — for a fixed rate of $7.99 every month. (This is the most basic package, but you can also pay more to send more photos.)

NanaGram does not have an app — a nice perk for those whose phone storage is perpetually full. Instead, users text photos with captions to a phone number connected to their account. This also means that multiple people (siblings, cousins, etc.) can use the number, distinguishing NanaGram from similar services. It’s like sharing a Netflix account, but with your relatives and for a kind reason. Nice! Read more…

Sarah Michelle Gellar celebrates 21st anniversary of ‘Buffy’ with rare throwback pics

TwitterFacebook

‘Buffy’ lives on — in Sarah Michelle Gellar’s Instagram, and in a box of DVDs I still have at my parent’s house (sorry Dad).

The actress shared rare photos from Buffy on her Instagram Wednesday, tying their release to International Women’s Day and the show’s 21st anniversary.

This is one PR stunt we can all get behind.

“I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the anniversary of #btvs is the same week as #internationalwomensday. I have always believed that the world is changed by your example, not by your opinion,” Gellar wrote in her post. Read more…
