justWink App Adds Sendable St. Patrick's Day Shenanigans
CLEVELAND, March 15, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- What better way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day than with a batch of brand spankin' new justWink cards for iPhone or Android? The seasoned St. Patty's Day party pros behind the popular smartphone app by American Greetings Corporation (NYSE: AM) sat down to ponder all of the things that make March 17th so magically delicious. The result was a collection of eight new digital greeting cards perfect for sending to both the O'Cheeky's and McCool's in one's clan.
With cards specifically designed for sending from across a bar or party, justWink makes it easy to connect for St. Patty's Day. Each greeting card can be sent digitally via text, email, or Facebook (and iPhone users can personalize and send any greeting to a lucky recipient's actual mailbox). The collection includes every Irish-inspired theme from chasing rainbows to St. Pat's shenanigans and everything in between.
"We love giving our fans fresh content every month and we knew they'd enjoy a justWink twist on such a fun holiday," says Rob Matousek, brand manager for the justWink smartphone app. "St. Patrick's Day is all about having a good time with friends, so we wanted to give them a bunch of options to celebrate on the go."
The justWink app can be downloaded for free from the Android Market and iTunes App Store, giving users 24/7 access to the complete collection. The app now contains nearly 250 cards, as well as the ability to add signatures (or doodles) and photos to cards and Facebook-powered birthday reminders. Cards can also be sent via text, email or Facebook. For more information, visit http://www.just-wink.com or http://www.facebook.com/justwink.
