A business card is not just a piece of paper you give to your clients containing your contact details. Business card is your ad, a billboard much larger than billboards in high traffic areas despite it is actually physically smaller. And it needs to get attention, to turn your clients into advocates.
I am primarily a software engineer with a lot of projects I'm working on, but somehow I still find a little time to realize my ideas that will provide recognition to my work and business. That includes some of really beautiful logos I created for services my agency provides together with eye-catching web design for web sites in BlicKlik - Internet Marketing Network.
Below are some of geeky business cards I created. All business cards are made using GIMP image editor, completely free software included in almost all GNU/Linux distributions and powerful alternative for proprietary image manipulation programs.

My Personal The Geekiest Business Card
Another unique business card I created several years ago after I had published MitraX GNU/Linux distribution. I still use it but with new contact details. Pay attention to checked "Remember me" option and disabled "Cancel" button ;)
