I wouldn't put a whole list of stuff on there -- unless of course
you design your card to list your skills on the back -- but a tag
line wouldn't hurt. (I use one on my personal cards.) Something like:
API documentation -- C++ and Java
Banking and financial software documentation
Technical writing for telecommunications
...just enough to get your point across.
HTH!
