It would be a good idea to list your interests on the back
of
your business card. You could also have a personal card
listing the things that you're actually willing to talk
about
(for parties).
example:
John Sibley
Assitive Technology
rank amateur brain science
trying
to like dogs
philosophy
building things from architectural salvage
alternative energy
intellectual hobby guilt
Maybe combined with
_22If_20You_20Ever_...0a_20Ring_22_20Card
Perhaps we could have a new category Culture:Social_Crutch. [mouseposture, Apr 23 2011]

[mocked-for-deletion] bad business. |
|
| |
I apologize, not to be bitter, but dammit. These
are
the reasons business relationships thrive. Because
we don't know anybody until-we-know-them. |
|

Ohhh.... you like to hunt with crossbow??? Me too!
Let's cook some popcorn and watch Prince of
Persia
together!... Meanwhile, the guy who you could
have
connected with over drugs and alcohol and the
Grateful Dead (Longest running point of
acknowledgement (only kidding)) is long gone.
BOOO. ;) [Kidding ... kinda.... Neuter] ... later>>> + |
|
| |
at this point u should be keen on the
nonexistence of my business skills. I'd burn the
thing to heat my '69 Gremlin while I sleep in it. |
|

Perhaps all business cards in the future should just present your plentyoffish.com address. You might get lucky. |
|
| |
xenzag interests:
anthrax
glue
cardboard
|
|
| |
[jurist] I can't help reading that website as plenty offish. |
|

Cunning molecular biology
Russian wristwatches
Trying to stay sane
Neuropharmacology (see above)
Microfluidics
Astronautics
Halfbakery

If you're going to *list* your interests, you should at least give the guy a bun! [+]

I love plentyoffish, myself. (Not this idea so much. No
mixing business with pleasure for me. Oh yeah, no
mixing pleasure with anything but pleasure for me.) |
|

Voracious reading habits
Art (medium doesn't matter)
Weird bond with children and animals
Playing paintball
Weapons aptitude (go figure)
Militant pacifist (right up until I'm not)
Word play
Day dreaming
Hiking
Halfbaking |

Heads off to see what this plenty of fish thing is... |
|

Russian wristwatches (mine's probably a knockoff)
Building random concoctions out of wood
Building random concoctions out of Legos
Building random concoctions out of food ingredients
Searching for antidotes to random food concoctions
Winston Churchill
Anything on lifehacker
Overly complex mechanical gizmos
poking holes in conspiracy theories and peudoscience
children's science toys (note, I have no kids) |
|
| |
Something unmentionable and very, very weird which i assume you all know about. |

Well, there ya go, see? What is it? |
|
| |
I designed some of these the last time vistaprint was
having a sale. The mentioned my hobbies, my
major,and that i was single. I never printed them
however because i felt i would never have the
courage to give them out. |
|
| |
Read: I never gave them out because I didn't have
the courage to print them? |
|
| |
I'm planning to "calligraph" mine with a quill and homemade ink on handmade paper. |
|
| |
Biro on half a beermat might be more eyecatching! |
|
| |
It's a nice idea [+], but I personally wouldn't want to be limited by what was on my card. I'll talk about anything anyone wants to talk about. |
|
| |
Now, a business card that would encourage people to talk to me at all, about anything, that'd be an amazing invention. |
|
| |
hmm... [+] I wasn't going to vote, but [DC] made me think of these (in a larger font) as a useful alternative to "Hello my name is" namecards. |
|
| |
[FT] That's really a much, much better idea. |
|
| |
well... same'ishreally: one enables you to see if you're compatible then optionally find out if you're attracted, the other lets somebody you're attracted to judge if you're also compatible... or something like that. |

| |
For [DeniqueCoelum] perhaps a wearable sandwich board would work better than business cards as a conversation starter. |
|
| |
Has anyone read the Mark Twain short on using playing cards as
social business cards? It still has me wondering if he was just
making fun of someone or- .... other. |
|
| |
Found a card printing machine on an M4 service station printed some off, it had my name, then underneath is had "Idiot savant (we're sure about the first part)". |
|
| |
But, no ever actually reads the cards, so a bit of a waste of time... |
