Ask HN: Best Business Card for Geek?

Geeks don’t have business cards.

Most people I know in geek life don't use business cards in person any more.

I would recommend that you build a simple website in HTML and host it on something like GitHub Pages with a custom domain, and use that as contact info.

I also use LinkedIn quite a bit.

Had to get some cards done for pyATL. Did the vista print cards on recycled paper. They’re nice and people do appreciate when I tell them they’re printed on recycled paper. No need to overthink it.

One thing that people miss is that the best way to get other people’s business cards is to give them yours first. Great way to gain 1:1 access to a lot of industry folks.

A friend of mine did his business card with a pen plotter. Very stylish!
