TwtBizCard Uses Hashtags to Send Contact Info With Each Tweet

— August 31, 2009 — Lifestyle
Twitter is an excellent networking tool, and TwtBizCard is a new service that aims to leverage that potential by allowing users to embed their contact information in each tweet.

Visitors to the TwtBizCard website can create what is essentially a virtual business card with their contact information. To send that business card to others, they need only append the hashtag #TwtBizCard to their tweets. Since all sent business cards are kept in the user's TwtBizCard account, it's a nice clutter-free alternative to stacks of business cards that are bound to get tossed or forgotten about.
