I’m playing with how I present myself on email. My Thunderbird email program automatically created a vcard (virtual business card) for me, but I didn’t really like the appearance. I edited it in a text editor, saved it as .VCF format. For now, I’ve created a simple garish webpage with an Hcard that has a little icon so you can download my information.
I’m puzzled how to allow people to download my information without making a big spam invitation. Yikes. At the moment my online vcard is a bit disfunctional because it gives my email as “nywc at uoregon dot edu” Since most of the robo-spammers can get past that one, I don’t know if it makes any sense to make the real people frustrated.
So as usual – caught between the convenience of the ugly card and spending endless hours figuring out the customization. With just a little bit more time, I’m sure I can figure out how to make the corners of the boxes rounded…
