business cards are out of date. They’re paper, which immediately makes them dinosaurs. You get them, and have to figure out what to do – do you copy it all into Outlook? Do you use a Rolodex? It’s just not the best way to do it.
Thankfully, there are a growing number of ways to use the internet to create, share and use your business card. Using these services, you can send your card to others, get contact information in your email (where all your contacts are anyway), and have the business cards work with your existing address books, which are increasingly online.
Although there are many, here are one way to bring your business card into the 2.0 World.
businesscards24.com is a business card, an “about me” page, and a signature to add to emails, blog posts, and anything else you can think of. When you create a card, you can embed it into your emails, paste it onto your blog, or send it to someone. It’s a great tool for connecting with other people, and is very social-network heavy.
businesscards24.com lets you link to your profiles (on hundreds of sites), so you can find friends all over the Web.
