App of the week: Paper Karma
My friend, social media expert Jacquelyn Kittredge, told me about Paper Karma, a free app that helps you stop junk mail and unwanted catalogs.
This app is out-of-this-world easy. Once you’ve downloaded it and registered, all you do is open the app and press Take Photo to take a photograph of any junk mail you want to stop. Then press Use when you’re looking at the preview and that’s that. They contact the company that sent you the mail on your behalf. It literally takes seconds.
As soon as I heard about it, I downloaded it and registered. I found two pieces of mail to stop and took photos and sent them. It’s too soon to know whether they’ll actually stop coming, but Jacquelyn has been happy with it.
It almost makes me wish I got more catalogs, so I could have the enjoyment and jolt of empowerment of using Paper Karma to stop them!

I can honestly say that the catalog stream has slowed to a trickle since I started using this app – I hope your readers enjoy the same success!
