Once I'd saved my card, I could share it via e-mail, Facebook, Pinterest, or Twitter. Even better, once I'd installed the CardFlick app on my iPhone and signed into my account, presto: there was the card I'd made. I could "flick" it to other CardFlick users in the area, or just send it via plain old e-mail.

Interestingly, anyone who receives your card gets not only the digital image, but also details about where and when you met--complete with a Google Map. How cool is that!

Very. Amazingly, InstaCards is free. It's not "free for the first five cards you send" or "only the ugly themes are free"--the whole thing is just plain free. My advice: stop spending money and trees on business cards and try this instead. It's seriously cool, and practical to boot.
