DinkyCard – smaller business cards

DinkyCard.org

We at Green Blog love small green and personal projects and movements (maybe because this blog is one of those?). That’s why we would like to tell you shortly about a guy named Jim and his project called DinkyCard.

Jim wants with his site DinkyCard “create a new, smaller international standard for the size of a business card to save some trees”.

It’s a good idea and if I personally would need a business card someday (in a distant future far away) I would definitely use 2′x1.75′ sized cards.

    Jim’s onto to something here. The smaller format looks great, and it stands out from the crowd,

    Hi, I think it might have a more realistic chance of catching on if the size we’re 2″x2.5″ – what does anyone think?

    That’s a couple of inches saved. Google tells me: 1 mile = 63,360 inches. Given the amount of business cards printed that’s a simple way to cut back.

    Cheers
