New Media to Check Out
"Engraved" e-vitations, iTunes edutainment, and a personal finance service
Tech / 26 Nov 2008

Paperless Post: Can't spring for that fancy stationery this holiday season? Not to worry, as e-viting is getting an upscale makeover with this new online invitation service that's similar to Evite and Pingg, but with the more classic, high-end look of engraved stationery. The service is still in beta, but as awareness grows and users increase, we expect it to become a hit with online party planners everywhere.
iTunes U: Go back to school without the jawdropping tuition costs with iTunes' new edutainment service. Over 75,000 educational audio and video files - all from top universities, museums and public institutions - offer those in search of higher learning mind expanding lectures, language lessons, audiobooks, and more.
