With the tremendous popularity in Social Media, you’re seeing an onset of creative ideas, tools and networks emerge. Many of the social media sites and tools will end up in the proverbial interactive dust bin—however some, those that solve a problem, have a solid chance of survival.
One such site/tool I ran into recently helps you create an online business card of sorts. Before you say something like, “isn’t that what my website is for?” Consider that we’re talking in the context of “Social Media.” If you are a savvy online marketer, you probably subscribe to a handful of social media sites. If so, one of the challenges is how to communicate to your market what sites you’re on and what your address(s) are.
In comes Card.ly…their main objective is to allow you to have your own mini-business card profile, without needing to have any design or programming skills. You can make a “tiny” portfolio online in which you’ll be able to integrate your various networks (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Digg, etc.). In addition, you can add a blurb about your business and how to best reach you. You can even choose between many different skins and other features. Card.ly has both a free and paid versions of their service.
