Business card, because it holds my PGP fingerprints, so if someone cares
enough they have a not-feasibly-hackable way of taking back to their
computer a trusted copy of my PGP fingerprints.  They can ask to see ID
at the time and I'll oblige.

My personal cards have fingerprints for my personal keys, and my newest
work cards have the fingerprint of my work PGP key.

Any kind of electronic intermediation replacing the paper card would
need to be part of the card itself, not online, to avoid being
susceptible to MitM attacks.

(Unless you think I'm a high-enough value target for someone to break
 into my room while I'm sleeping and replace my business cards with
 versions that have a different fingerprint. :)  )
