contxts. the new biz card.

SwissMiss posted a story this morning about a new service called contxts.com that allows you to text your contact information directly to your phone, regardless of whether or not they have an account with the service. Sounds interesting, but what makes it different? Here's their spiel:

Contxts is so much more than a professional social network. It's a way to make meaningful connections while out and about. Business cards are so 2007. What with the environment in shambles do you really want to be that guy who is handing out chopped up pieces of bleached trees? We here at Contxts.com think that our site will solve this problem and more. By using SMS, built into every mobile phone, you can easily and rapidly distribute your credentials.

- Exchange all of your professional information with a single text message
- Keep all of your professional contacts organized in one place
- It's eco-friendly (txt messages don't kill polar bears)
- Rid yourself of "old school" business cards
- Link with other professionals
