my name is mwd

In the near future I’m going to a couple of events where it’d be useful to have some business cards to hand out. From what I gather regular business cards are expensive, and after my experience at Intel (where in my time there I had three sets of cards and not one of them came back correct from the printers) I didn’t really like the idea of handing my details over to someone else to process incorrectly.

However, the Internet, as ever, provides! I went to moo.com, which is designed for doing batches of small cards with details on one side and pictures from a flickr album on the other. It’s cheap, easy to use (a rare example of a good web site based on web 2.0 type ideas), and the results were correct!

The cards are not proper card height, but I don’t mind – they have the important details on them (name, company, email), and they have a very good finish – they certainly feel professionally done. And at 100 cards for 10 quid, ideal for that startup budget :)
