There are a lot people who believe that new technologies will make business cards obsolete. Being in this business, I can tell you that this business cards sales still remain strong. You should consider them as an ecosystem, and applications built around this system will help.

The other way to go might be to put a QR code on your card / t-shirt!? Readers for QR Codes are now available for iPhone and Android platform, and whilst far from mainstream, QR codes might be THE geek favourite for information exchange?

Thanks for mentioning that Dennis.

Just to clarify, EverNote is not Mac specific. There is also a Windows version of it.

Also, there are mobile versions (I use the iPhone version but there are BlackBerry and Palm afair). You can use the phone camera to take the photo of the card and it is saved to the cloud for easy access from your phone, computer, etv.

I love the way things are evolving. I just purchased this iPhone app that scans biz cards and adds them to your contacts on your phone. So far, it seem to work well.

Now, only if there is way to sync these contacts to the CRM/Mail systems. I guess it is a matter of time before we see these.
