So cool! Actually makes me want to send a letter.

In the line of one of Google’s previous April’s Fool Day proposals, this design concept might actually become feasible. “Google Maps Envelopes” maps the course of snail mail on the envelop itself. The project further proposes people would be able to send these envelopes through the GMail interface.

[Update: Just found out that these where thought up by fellow Industrial Design students at Syracuse University! http://www.yankodesign.com/2010/03/30/google-envelopes-beta-of-course/ ]
