If you don't want to pay, you can use the basic version quite well. However, 20% of other people's profiles are blocked.. But that's a fair price for the free version. I appreciate the ability to record sent and received letter mail.

It's nice that there is again a way to get in touch with people around the world via the old postal service, in addition to the whole social media thing.
