This would probably make the beginning a good startup idea. If you do/don't have a card but do have a twit id a simple app to notify people you have met & manage the contacts (as long as you remember/record/contact their twit handles) - sort of an online business card. Stacks of contact apps have been built like this way but linking both the online/offline would be innovative.
But nothing beats having something physical to put in someones hand without the need to sling out your phone/computer. I use moo cards of flickr images ~ ~ http://www.flickr.com/photos/bootload/sets/72157616147825654/with/3661538477/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/bootload/sets/72157616147825654... Unique, cheap & good looking they get the right information across. They are cheap enough for me to order a new batch every year with images I've taken making each one individual. By letting users select an image each is personalised.
- benmaxime 16y agoThe Twitter idea is very interesting, it could be done with so many networks, Facebook, LinkedIn etc. Nothing may beat something physical for now, but soon in the future business cards wont exist anymore. It will all be virtual, thats just where things are heading...
