Photo business cards are dead. They were killed by a Minglestick now not only a person's name and a phone number, address and photo, but also the person social-networking profiles on Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and LinkedIn. No doubt, in due time there will probably other networking sites are available on the Minglestick, but it sure beats the old photo card in oblivion and antiquity.
Many agents used business applicationsCards with their photos, but now they are "old hat". It will probably now nothing more than a kind of scribble pad for leaving notes on tenants doors.
Well, if you have a contact person you can also access the social-networking profiles, the building of several major e-mail lists using the Internet for IM, e-mail marketing as a marketing strategy. The Minglestick could be a very useful tool in the right hands and with respect, but when usedgot the wrong hands could be as a device to cheat, unless a person is only limited access will be carefully used.
The access can be controlled on your computer when you use the device and upload your Minglestick. If you choose, the next morning that you really do not want that person you met in a nightclub last night, access to some specific details you need to simply prohibit them from entering. Is it too simple, it is not.
As it always was, it's still up to each person, how little or howmuch they tell another person about himself. Technology can save us all the time and energy, but we have as individuals to be vigilant and use common sense, and as we implement new technologies.
But it is the end of the road for the photo card and is approaching the end of your business cards. They have died a natural death in the production of Minglestick, and now they must be sent to the bottom drawer until you decide as a user, you can finally partwith them and their expensive cost.
Now the title RIP is available for more than it originally meant as "RIP the old style photo-cards today" and get with the new technology.
