How do we manage names cards which we collect, exchange when we meet new friends at work, play, seminar, courses?
I recalled when i used to teach at an IT training firm that I will make it a point to exchange name cards to keep in touch with my students so that they can contact me if they encounter any issues or problems. We had name card albums, then came the name card scanners, then came the electronic version of name cards by beaming from our pdas. There are new ways offered by web 2.0, one is to invite people to your social networking sites and provided they do accept you as a friend and you will then be connected. Other ways will be to type out their contact details in a Mind map or any customer contact database. I am trying these last few methods to capture and to connect with people.
