Retaggr takes the concept of paper business cards and transforms them into Harry Potter like interactive cards. Beyond the benefits of not killing trees to leave your contact information, an interactive card is sooo multi dimensional. With your Retaggr card you can:
- Show your current Twitter messages
- Link to your blogs, web profiles such as Facebook
- Display your on the internet activity on other sites like FriendFeed, Flickr, etc.
- Add any web widget
- Grant others to get in touch with you via Skype, MSN, Gtalk, etc.
Whereas paper cards are static, your profile card instantly updates as you update information on your various social networks. Also, when you leave comments on other Retaggr enabled sites, your profile card is left there too. If someone mentions you in a post, they can link to you so your card automagically appears.
A profile card provides more context to what you’re about and what you’re up to. And that’s the other edge of the sword. (Cue scary music). How much information do you want people to have at their fingertips anyway?
