My cards were way nicer than those my clients had gotten <em>professionally</em> printed with bubbly ink, no-bleed designs, and cheap paper. Though I put tremendous care into my cards, I never was happy with the design.</p> <h2>Why Have Business Cards?</h2> <p>I’m rarely asked for my business card except when I attend conferences, of which I attend one or two each year. As a freelance contractor, I leave work by walking twenty-five feet from my office to the couch. Many of the people I work for I’ve never met in-person.</p> <p>When someone gives me their business card, I read it, pocket it, and eventually throw it out — sometimes before I remember to copy the information to my address book (sorry, just being honest). The reality is, with the ubiquity of the internet and with frictionless social networks like Twitter, I can connect with people immediately. So why have business cards?</p> <p><a href='/2011/04/07/test-of-typography/'>Continue reading »</a></p></div> </article> <article> <header> <h1><a href="/2011/03/14/test-post/">Test Post</a></h1> <p> <span class="byline author vcard">By <span class="fn">Your Name</span></span> <time datetime="2011-03-14 00:00:00 -0400" pubdate>March 14<span>th</span>, 2011</time> </p> </header> <div class="entry"><p>This is a test!</p> </div> </article> <article> <header> <h1><a href="/2009/11/13/hello-world/">Hello World!

Just write, generate, deploy, using the same tools and patterns you already use for your daily work.</p> <p><a href="http://wiki.github.com/imathis/octopress/">Read the wiki to learn more</a></p> </div> </article> </div> <aside><section> <h1>About Me</h1> <p>Hi, I'm Octopress!</p> </section> <section> <h1>Recent Posts</h1> <ul id="recent_posts"> <li class="post"> <a href="/2011/04/07/test-of-typography/">Test of Typography</a> <time>April 07, 2011</time> </li> <li class="post"> <a href="/2011/03/14/test-post/">Test Post</a> <time>March 14, 2011</time> </li> <li class="post"> <a href="/2009/11/13/hello-world/">Hello World!
