Eh, business cards have a lot more value than you give them credit for; calling them 'paraphernalia' makes me question how much biz dev experience you have. Also, I recommend you visit the book store and flip through a few design books with focus on identity systems...
It's also rather naive to assume someone is going to remember your name, phone number, company name, and email address because "you're special" and have the next billion dollar IP.
Lastly, how else are you suppose to get free lunch?! cmon, join teh party!
- gruseom 19y agoEdit: your questions surrounding "biz dev" are certainly well founded. Strangely enough, though, I've never had trouble writing down an email address or keeping in touch with someone I've met.

If you need someone to remember you, you should be the one to tAke the initiative and contact them later anyway. That's not to say that business cards are bad, just that they're non essential.
