The Dutch Hallmark internet site was barely online all day yesterday due to a massive influx of users trying to send the free valentine e-cards. According to a spokesperson of Hallmark around 125,000 e-cards did manage to get delivered.
The amount of visits yesterday was unknown and the international site also had a lot of trouble staying online.
About 40,000 people reserved an e-card for submission a few days before Monday and 80,000 were sent on Valentines day itself via the site. Last year it was less at 80,000 in total.
Did you send one? I did but I had to go elsewhere to get it sent!
