Moo Unboxing

First of all, I have to say that I love Moo. This is the sec­ond set of Mini cards I have got­ten from them, and I’m again impressed with the order process, the print qual­ity, and the turn­around time. The cards are fan­tas­ti­cally handy to keep in a purse or pocket for when you need them. I still have a few of my first batch left, but I decided to order more since I’ve updated my brand look a lit­tle, and have started tran­si­tion­ing to my Google Voice num­ber. Read More »

Per­haps there is just more audi­ence for web-related infor­ma­tion on the web. Hope­fully this guide will help new InDe­sign users become more effi­cient and more knowl­edge­able about such a pow­er­ful and flex­i­ble piece of soft­ware. Read More »

Posted April 17, 2009 in Links and tagged , , , Comments Off

Chris Rossi over at mod­bird has put together a great list on her site of busi­ness card print­ers. I’ve per­son­ally used Moo, uPrint­ing and VistaPrint and have got­ten great results from all. I absolutely love my Moo mini cards. She also has some really good points about the card design process and the impor­tance of hav­ing a good card. Check it out!

um, do you have a card?
