Here's My Card...
Since I'll be roaming around Blackhat and Defcon once again this year it isn't a bad idea to carry around some sort of correspondence card. I've avoided creating a business card because of the challenging nature of their design. In order to stand out from other cards a business card has to offer something unique. It has to dazzle its recipient, either in its unique size, material, or design.
Lately I've seen a few skinny or mini cards being handed out, small 1"x3" cards. I've only been able to find two printers that produce them at the moment, Zazzle.com and MOO.com. Both companies offer 100 cards for about $20.00. Zazzle is a tiny bit cheaper than the later and offers a few different paper types, both front and back can be printed with graphics, however you are limited to a single design for the entire set of 100. While MOO only allows a single side to be a graphic, you are allowed up to 100 different graphics per set of 100.
I have a few designs in mind that would fit perfectly on these mini cards, I suppose I'll test the waters by printing my own before I drop $20.
Update @ 1:33pm: Matthew Inmen did exactly this. However, he's a much better artist than myself.
