One of my new favorite online invite sites, Pingg, isn't just for invitations — you can send cards, too!
Finally, an eVite Competitor: Pingg
I've loved eVite for a long time and think it's a great tool, but it's high time someone else jumped into the online invitation pool — enter Pingg!
Pingg is a fun alternative to eVite and offers designs that are a bit more stylish and SurroundSend, which allows you to send your invites via email, text, and even print. The designs must be nice — Martha Stewart is backing it!

I was seriously impressed: clean lines, tools like polls to figure out the best date for everyone, and awesome features like avatars and html snippets (so you could add your own maps or widgets). I was so impressed, in fact, that I started drafting up an invite for my next soiree!
