    Getting involved in these social spaces and wondering how to pass that information along? Just trying to fit your contact information and your purpose can be daunting.

    Yes, Virginia, there is an easier way.

    There are several ways to store your contact information in online repositories and add the link to your business card, website or blog. These storage places are good looking and make a one-click bridge to the sites where you are active.

    Two of these that I have tried are Retaggr and Card.ly. Both are similar in their motivation. I have used both in my Yahoo email signature, which is kind of neat. I have used Retaggr for a long time, relatively speaking, but I am thinking I like the setup of Card.ly better.

    Retaggr lists all of your social media and “real life” contact information and has widgets that you can use to integrate interaction. It is more comprehensive than Card.ly- and that is perhaps why I prefer Card.ly.

    Card.ly offers 38 skins (some of them are premium, but most are free) and you can locate something professional there- regardless of your profession. You add your contact information in- just as you do with Retaggr- and choose the look:

    So in addition to being embedded in an email signature, you can put that one card.ly address onto your twitter homepage, on facebook, on your business card, on your social media card- anywhere that listing all of your links is too “bulky”.
