<title>Jay Goldman : Designing JayGoldman.com Business Cards and Need Your Input!</title>

<description>You know, I really only like the receipt concept. I think the messaging could be better, but there&amp;#039;s something &lt;em&gt;very&lt;/em&gt; strong in that idea.   Perhaps I&amp;#039;ve gotten a little more stodgy over the years, but while I think a business card needs to be really fun, I am more concerned about whether the brand and necessary information are conveyed effectively. The card, while unique, is just the wrong format. And I agree with you about the last one...there&amp;#039;s something to this idea that was squashed by the weight given to her &amp;quot;HIRE ME&amp;quot; insistence.   I like the idea of a card holding your interest long enough for that short- to long- term memory transfer to take place, though I&amp;#039;m not sure the cross-world puzzle does that. Hmm, maybe I like this one more than I originally thought. I really like the simplicity of the info-side, that&amp;#039;s for sure.  I have always been a HUGE fan of distinctive letterpressed business cards, printed on rough-hewn recycled card stock. For me, the material is just as important as the actual design. Don&amp;#039;t know if you&amp;#039;ve ever seen any of Bruce Licher&amp;#039;s work...but if you can get your hands on a sample set, I strongly recommend taking a look at what Bruce does. He truly is a letterpress legend.
