Hackernews|Ask HN : Review my startup weekend project
We meet people at different event and location, we share business cards. Sometimes we run out of it and then it becomes extremely difficult to connect people when needed. Also afterwards, we have to maintain stack of cards and reconnect it with person with where we meet. Secondly for most of the people like students, workers who don't have business card, it's becomes very difficult to make connection and share contacts and remain connected.
We developed a product to solve these problems, it’s called Digixcard. Digixcard create your own business / personal card using your social network's profile. It's a location aware mobile application which allows you to create and share your cards on the fly.

There are several out there already. All of them require traction to become serious contenders. Bump is probably the best known. Yet, the greatest downfall to any is that each party must be a member of that app.
Paper cards still rule the roost (and with digitizers have become a lot easier to manage). Google App has a business card reader on it. Very cool.
Still, the best way I've seen and used so far is twitter. You meet, like, and trade twitter handles becoming followers right away. Then later, follow up for more info. This is not for the more serious connections where paper cards rule.
Just my opinion
