Platinum Versions History

Before... Oct 12 1997

Our first commercial postcard script Personal Postcards Gold was released. It was a simple yet reliable and flexible Perl script and is still running on hundreds low traffic card sites.

However very quickly we encountered the limitations of Perl and it's unsuitability for handling high traffic. We have used the same concepts and ported them to C. That's how the first Platinum was born.
