I enjoy clever business cards but I am not certain that they are always the best way to communicate or simply transfer your contact information. However I do think that people find them delightful and they can make a strong initial impression on the recipient. Since they are difficult to keep because they are often odd shaped or odd sized I believe that sadly many are soon discarded after the novelty value has worn off.
Here is a link to an assortment of clever business cards recently shared with me. Enjoy!

Though I don’t use business cards, I do use social cards. Especially for my blog and such. I really like those ideas. I will definitely be rethinking my social cards the next time I order. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for the link – some lovely cards there. I think those cards that fold down or compress to a ‘normal’ business card are normally well received and kept (well, kept as much as any other business card). Those that are bulky or awkward to store, I’m sure, end in the trash.
Like RaeBeth above I don’t use business cards anymore for my blogging, but some of these are so original they would be a nice idea to hand out. Thanks
Even bloggers can use business cards. It’s a perfect way to tell people you meet what your blog is about and where to find you in the web.
We did our cards about 60% as tall as the normal business card. We get a lot of comments on the uniqueness. They definitely stand out in a stack!
