E-Greetings Gain Ground at Businesses This Season

Maria Aspan writes in The New York Times:

Have you sent out your holiday cards this year? What about your e-cards?

If your second answer was yes, you are in good company. Once seen as the tacky, last-minute substitute for pen and paper, e-cards have become more acceptable this holiday season, especially in the corporate world, where LinkedIn and Facebook have become popular places for sending holiday greetings.

In other words: It’s no longer just a Merry Christmas. It’s another networking opportunity.

Note: And let's be careful out there -- a little common sense goes a long way. There is lots of badness masquerading as e-cards just waiting for you to click on it, and steal your PC -- and your credit card information, your login IDs, etc.

Watch what you are clicking on. -ferg
