An online business card is different in that it is stored online and not in a business card holder but is stored online. It has its advantage in that it is accessible from anywhere in the world and gives unlimited storage facility.
A typical online business card includes the giver's name, company affiliation and contact information such as street addresses, telephone number(s), e-mail addresses and website.
There are many websites offering online storage of business card. In some of these sites a user can store his/her visiting cards and in exchange can get another visiting card for free.
