I just realized I gave out the remaining biz cards at Gnomedex and have none for VWorlds2008 in LA. But seriously, *business cards* at a virtual world conference? I should telepathically BEAM that data to you. Can't we upgrade? I'll say this, next rev of cards will be products. :)

Eric does not need business cards - just Google the man!

oh man, use dropcard or something!

i normally use moo.com but not on this short notice...i should also ping the tokyo crew about their thoughts since the card thing is SO part of biz culture.

Someone mentioned awhile ago to hook up a Nintendo DS and pictochat your info to them :P You could do the same for a PSP (I think it was Alexander Williams who said it). I want that personally.

Honestly, I don't understand this card thing. I was beaming people with palm pilots 8 years ago. In fact, it was considered RUDE to have business cards when I went to infrastructure conferences.

@Christine, i work in telecommunications and i've run into situations where handing a biz card is a huge faux pas. beam it or forget it is what i've been told.
- Admiral Anika
Of course, how do we know what can be beamed or not, what's compatible or not. I wouldn't even know how to transfer between a treo and iphone or blackberry and nokia... and i'm like from the FUTURE n shit. :)

so... years ago Palm had the biz card beaming feature. I remember loving it. Where did it go? How did it fall out?

its bluetooth, don't the smurfs in our phone just make it work. i used to have a PPC6700 and now i have an instinct. I've never had a problem beaming anyone anything, except when I was in vegas and my phone would not pick up or receive data from the iphone user standing next to me. that was the only time in the past 5 years that's happened..
- Admiral Anika
i think the other point i'm making is that i can't even recall having run across the need to do this, much less, even know *how* to
- Eric Rice
I know this doesn't help you for next week, but if it is an important contact, in the future perhaps use a branded flash drive w/ your contact info and sample of work? There are a few sites like this out there: http://www.usb-flashdrive.com/us...

tagami: actually i have a use for flash drives for another project ;) but yeah, great idea for some for biz card replacements

I'm at Dragon*Con and I've seen some great anime themed cards the last few days. I like business cards - I should make some :)
