TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I have a picture of my 60 year old body in Speedo's on the back of my
card....okay I don't, but talk about making an impression, albeit a very bad
one.
On a more serious note, I like Geoff's idea the best so far. Make your card
useful by including links to information/hint pages on your personal
website. It drives traffic and the more traffic you get to your site, the
more "advertising" you are doing of what you can offer that potential
employer. If you only get one contract per year from that site, it pays for
the web hosting and domain registration.

without a destination, I figured, than to cross the wrong threshold each
day." (Anon.)
