Does that mean you need a spotter to dial the
number?

nice! except, when you want to copy the
"card's" details over to your cell
phone/pda/whatever you need 2 pairs of hands
to do so :)

Very cool and clever idea for marketing

If memory serves correctly this was a concept
card that a friend of his made up.
If you're in Toronto, Poul Nielsen is an
excellent personal trainer. :-)

It's cool and conceptually strong, but
functionally useless.
Every person who picks this card up would
have to be told how to read it.
It wouldn't sit nicely in my wallet.
If I saw this laying on the ground, I would
think it's just discarded garbage and not
someone's business card.
It's more of a marketing gadget than
anything else. And an expensive one to
produce, most likely.

If I saw this laying on the ground, I would

ground, i find if they're on the ground to
start with they're not worth picking up

Good idea, Good design....
and apparently it has got people talking
about it.
I expect that his training sales are
picking up / will be picking up soon.

this cool card was also spotlighted in
ARCHIVE magazine. Decent Idea but WOZ's steel
cards are still cooler

I suppose a better analogy would be if I saw
this sitting on a person's desk, I wouldn't
make the association with it actually being a
businesscard.
Rather I would think it's a piece of rubber
with writing on it, maybe a piece of a
training band that broke, whatever. I make
the association of it being a business card
by its shape only.
I suppose the natural inclination of most
people would be to pull upon the rubber,
eventually.
But if the function of the card is to
provide information about the trainer to an
uninformed market, then I think it fails on a
utilitarian level.
If it's to be used as a marketing tool,
it's very a very cool object concept, and it
succeeds.
The dialog might consist of what a cool
idea this card is and how great that personal
trainer is.
To the uninformed, however, I think it
would *probably* be lost.
And yes, if I see a piece of design on the
ground, I will pick it up... Kind of like a
trained dog.

Novel idea! How am I going to stretch the
card with one hand while trying to dial? ;)

good idea with the training of the hands
first, then the brain to figure out how dial
the number... :-)

If you could add your card to my group, The Business Card, that'd be excellent. I realize someone else
has asked you to add it to theirs as well;
think you could add to ours too?
Thanks!! Great card.

I don't get the comments about "how will
I copy over the details" ... don't you
have a good memory? :x After stretching it
out two times you should be able to remember
it all and copy it where it needs to go.
Anyway - love it.

Love it! My arms are really sore after a
touch workout right now, so I guess I'd have
to call him when I'm feeling up to the
challege ;-)

To tomnjess:
Good ideas have power and there's always
the conservative in the crowd to poo poo an
idea that's outside of their comfort zone.
To creator:
Regardless of whether the card ever got
made, your idea was creative and original and
that's probably more than most of us can ever
say.
Great job.

I used to do this with rubber bands... I
would stretch it over the desk... then write
things on it with a pen (usually things like
"I hate Ms.So and so").. so when
you put it together it looked all squished...
then we would shoot them at the teacher haha

great idea, but the name/phone number should
be visible when not stretched, if not, then
this is useless as a business card.. it would
be better to have some other elements
invisible when unstretched (say a catchy
slogan).

The "web 2.0" way, however, would have been to post
the photo with a link to the site too -- then
the buzz would have gotten this personal
trainer dude some business.

Nice idea, but when you let go with one hand
to write the number down or ring on a phone,
it'd shrink again !

number??

I give this a 2 out of 10. It's a nice
gimmick, but that's all. Like others
mentioned, you need four hands to make it
functional.

Superb concept... I disagree totally with
people that have dissed this. How many other
business card types are there that force you
to do the very nature of the business type
(train your muscles). Who cares if it can't
be seen unless stretched etc etc. People
would show this around just because it's cool
as apposed to Joe Blog's boring looking
business card that was made from a stupid
template.

1. brilliant concept. I think it would be
best used as Guerrilla Advertising - where
these cards may be scattered in different
public areas - to generate some buzz.
2. Definitely would need to be more
recognizable as a "business card"
with some info not stretched. I still think
it's gimmicky and not entirely functional - a
business card's purpose is to fit in the
wallet and contain all the pertinent info
when it's time to make that call - (i imagine
it would get annoying after awhile.)
