A business card that will catch your attention
Know the feeling of looking at a stack of business cards the day after returning from a conference or networking event and already forgetting the faces and stories of the dozens of people whose names, titles, and e-mail addresses are now scattered across your desk?
Well, what if you were holding one of the new business cards from my friend Christopher S. Penn, a super Connected Worker?
I bet you’d remember some of his stories, then.
And what if you next flipped over that business card and had a link to Chris’s Virtual Business Card, which included links to websites for his day job and several other projects he’s involved in and passionate about, as well as all of the ways to contact him?
Well, you’d be impressed, of course, and you’d be certain to follow up with him, get to know him, and become part of his online social network. And in turn, he’d become part of yours.

This is one of the most unigue networking ideas I have seen in a long time. I may have to borrow Chris’ idea. I might take it a step further and add the card as my email signature. Great idea, thanks for sharing it.
