i'm still against this idea,
it's like putting the link http://www.google.com/search?q=n…
instead of
www.nathanherald.com/and wouldn't you want them going to
http://myobie.com/?

This has already been discussed but I think the corporation name on one side and being told to Google an individual on the other doesn't make much sense. Also I would never expect people to put in any extra effort from my experience.

I think the "google me" is a good idea but my philosophy is that people are lazy, they need a phone number or email right upfront. What's the point of giving someone a business card if they still have to google you to find some way of contacting you?

to waste paper and ink
- myobie0
yes, this is my plan to waste the last bit of paper and ink in the world! and no one will know i did it, cause they are too lazy to google me!
thanx for all the comments, i agree that people are lazy and stuff, but it is different and it does draw attention
i also agree that they may find a different page than mine, but i doubt the probability of that...
nathanherald.com will have a big link to myobie.com, so that's not a concern
i will probly do it (it's a risk, but eh, it really is better than what i have now) and it might generate some buzz with the people i meet with...which is good for me
i been thinking of making three different cards:
* Nathan Herald
* Phone Number
*but yeah, that's even more ink and paper
and don't worry about cost, i am a reseller for a print house

something about saying
'Google Me'
is childish, self-centeredwhy are you trying to use the fact that you are at the top of Google's search results (for 'Nathan Herald' duh. ) as a basis for how you'd like people to contact you?
that's kinda corny.are you trying to motivate people to use search engines?
you want people to really work to find your number? then use their own pen to write it on the back of the card?
how about instead of 'google me'.. put 'myobie.com'
silly.

'google me' does show, albeit coerced, that you have good knowledge of how google works and that you appear at or near the top.

i would slap you in the face immediately after reading your card.
then i would google you 4.7 years later when i was going through my dresser drawer.

It would make more sense if you were providing SEO services.

just so everyone knows, i was wanting to put just my name on a card, but a friend suggested the google me part, so it wouln't be as empty
but i think i favor just the name now
i gotta think about it...
