Usually, I consider them just a waste of perfectly good trees and can turn you into a pretentious ass very quickly,

But THIS, is just too cool:

The Google Me idea is also cool, if you are sure what will come up:

Dunno, saw the google me cards in a blog not so long ago and can't say I like the idea.
Very good advertising for google, not so creative when it comes to defining yourself or promoting your business.

I love the lego men.

Found some brillilant ideas for cards here:

The clear plastic ones & the dog tags are teh awesome imo.

the google thing is prety stupid, what are ppl going to do who dont have an internet connection? (yes they are out there) or dont have it within reach when they want to contact you?

The lego thing is pretty nice, really original idea.
Some of Natsias cards look good, but i think a business card should be a phlat piece of paper, which goes in your pocket or wallet easily.

and Crowley you can print them on recycled paper, for example:

(we should say 'recycled' or better: downcycled, since most (if not all) of the 'recycling' going on on this planet loses quality of the materials...therefor: downcycle).

Uhm, only bosses of small companies have 'owner' on their business card.

When your company grows and grows until it's weally weally big and professional, and you share it with stockholders like I did, then you'll change your cards to MD. 😉

Did you see the link for Hebrew Free Loans too?

There is a button saying 'Lend Now'. Is this a joke? 🙄

Wow, you're so cool...
I wish I could also be in a foreign country, spending my time slaving away to make some other people rich and then go and drink my troubles away.

What is your definition of 'big' and 'professional', BTW?
