Comments on: Twitter Address: Now Mandatory For Business Cards? http://daggle.com/twitter-address-now-mandatory-for-business-cards-432 Danny Sullivan's Personal Blog Wed, 23 May 2012 04:19:43 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Steve Fitzpatrick http://daggle.com/twitter-address-now-mandatory-for-business-cards-432/comment-page-1#comment-25068 Steve Fitzpatrick Fri, 10 Jun 2011 01:02:35 +0000 http://daggle.com/wordpress/?p=432#comment-25068 I was just looking for examples and read this post. I think it's interesting Patrick said in Feb 2010 that these social networks may come and go - but Twitter, FB and Lin have all grown stronger. I think both twitter and FB are worth of being on your business card, linkedin should be in that category too being a more professional network, but it's barely an area to communicate like the others. Also agree with omitting the fax number - In the last 12 months we've received 2 faxes - both direct mail! I was just looking for examples and read this post.

I will post on your blog too. I had already built the page, but wow... what a brilliant idea. I had too much information on my card... now I just have a URL. so minimalist, and so much control. SO well done. Thank you. @Patrick.. I will post on your blog too. I had already built the page, but wow… what a brilliant idea. I had too much information on my card… now I just have a URL.

They are coming and going way too fast. The better option is to get people to go to a contact page on your site that is dynamic so you can add/remove the social networks as you move around. Twitter is cool and fun - but it is far from something the majority of people in this world have. I'd rather you use a more extensive and stable means to communicate with me anyways.

We haven't integrated a "Twitter field" into our business card templates yet, but am wondering if just replacing the "fax field" might be a good spot on most business cards. Does anyone use a fax anymore? I also like your idea of adding social networks, profiles, blogs and other links on the back of the card. Was just researching this for my company and found your post.
