    The worlds first intelligent stamp

    BBC News - First 'intelligent' stamp put on sale by Royal Mail

    The Royal Mail has launched what it claims is the world's first "intelligent" stamp.

    Viewing the stamp via a smartphone takes usesr to a related webpage.

    ...

    Those viewing the stamp, part of the Royal Mail's latest Great British Railways edition, via the Junaio app will be directed to a short film showing Bernard Cribbins reading Auden's famous poem The Night Mail.
    How many people will actually bother? I suspect that the sort of people who write letters and put special stamps on them don't really go in for smartphones.

    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
