Zumbox allows businesses to digitally mail things to consumers that they might normally send as physical mail, such as bills, statements, insurance policies, etc. Zumbox says it’s better than email because it’s tied to physical addresses, is more secure, has better multimedia support, and is a closed system, so it can keep out spam.
Zumbox plans to start a national rollout of the service at the end of 2009 and says it will reach 1 million homes through deals with local governments, media companies, and mail senders.
