I wasn’t sure whether to respond in a silly way or not as I wasn’t sure if you thought this was a digital card. 😜

It will be physical cardboard with NFC.

If this was sarcastic then damn, missed the chance to have some fun!

Damn...in that case, here is the response I would have given (just won't be as funny now 😣)

Of course they will be animated. I have allocated £150 budget per card so I have bought several small LCD screens and had custom PCBs printed.

We are going to strap two screens back to back so it is animated on each side.

Additionally there will be a light strip around the outside so you can say "hey InHu" and it will light up, connect to the nearest Wi-Fi network, contact out servers, then return a suitable insult that is in-keeping with the "angry accessibility guy" theme.

Of course we have also designed them to work as a cluster, so our whole website will be powered purely by the business cards, true distributed computing.

It means I have to travel the world to ensure I have a CDN in every Country though but overall I think it is a cost effective and wonderful idea.

😉🤣🤣
