Oh this is so funny!!! Google tried to release an April Fool’s joke today about Google Paper
- the ability to have your emails printed and sent via snail mail!
The problem they didn’t realise is that in the latest issue of Fast Company, this ACTUALLY HAPPENS in India!!!
It’s called the ePost service from the Indian post office. Now you have a Billion Indians who are thinking that this is a legitimate alternative to their ePost service - nice try Google, but next time, make sure your PR people read Fast Company!!

This is halarious - I´m happy Google didn´t call the service epost - thats the translated word for email here in Sweden! Of course confusing 9 million instead of one billion would have been a little better!
Well done Google!

Interestingly, Korea Post does this as well. What’s more, Korea Post’s website is called ePost, by the way… and that’s where you can do the e-mail-to-snail-mail service, among other things.
