Postcrossing é um projeto baseado na Internet que consiste na troca de postais entre membros registados, de certo modo semelhante ao Bookcrossing. No entanto, enquanto este último implica deixar livros em locais devidamente divulgados para que outros os recolham e leiam, o Postcrossing consiste na troca aleatória de postais. Os participantes que enviam um postal irão também receber pelo menos um de um outro utilizador de qualquer país do mundo.
