It's not a digital business card replacement. It's taking the process a business card tries to achieve and digitizes it. Only 1/10 people actually keep the bus

Only 1/10 people actually keep the business cards they get, even then do you remember where you met that person? Very likely not

- AndrewKemendo 12y agoNo, I get it. I'm simply saying the idea of replacing the business card is almost a trope of startups and has yet to see much enthusiasm from adopters. Only 1/10 people actually keep the business cards they get, even then do you remember where you met that person? Very likely not I don't intend to keep business cards. Here is my use case: Go to an event, collect a ton of cards, go home and email the people a follow up using their cards as a reference point for contact info, throw card away. Analog cards interrupt the socializing the absolute minimum, I don't even have to look at it when they give it to me. Even if I intend to enter the data into my phone or another system I can do that in bulk at the end of the night or once I am home much more efficiently.
- gfodor 12y agoseems to me this person is just scratching their own itch and not trying to sell this. i get it, this would reduce the friction for me, i'll give it a whirl next time i go to a conference.
- blaurenceclark 12y agoThanks :) The entire app is free to use and free for me to run as it all exists device side, use away!
- grayclhn 12y agoFair enough. To the extent I do, I usually share business cards at the end of a conversation so pulling out the phone isn't really an interruption.
