Business cards have long been the one constant in the business world at meetings and conferences. A relatively small, pocketable card containing all the basic information you need to contact or learn more about the business and/or person you just met is a brilliant way to leave a lasting reminder that sticks around long after the initial meeting takes place.

With technologies such as Bump, and other digital calling card exchanges taking place, it is easy to consider business cards as a dead medium. After all, most business planning is starting to take place over email, instant messages, and other electronic mediums.

Business cards may not be dead, but they are evolving. They've gone from simple phone, address, and fax information to email addresses and more creative discovery methods like Google search terms and Twitter handles.

So, what do you think? Is the business card dead?
