Social media is becoming so popular that your facebook and twitter address has become a necessary part of your business cards. Also you have to put your email address and cell no, there. If you are a relatively more social then you will like to add your friend feed and myspace link as well. Bloggers and web entrepreneurs need to add the links to their sites and online profiles like linkedIn. Won’t this all make your business card messy? Obviously it is becoming impossible to add all this information on a business card. There should be a solution! Augmented reality cards are a nice initiative but it requires a webcam and will definitely consume more time for people to get connected with you online.

So Poken is your solution! It is a tiny key ring that is an electronic business card as well. It is a simple gadget that is designed with the professional networking in mind. Every two people having a poken can exchange all the contact and social networking information. Poken is developed with the RF technology. All you have to do is to touch your poken with the poken of the person you have just came across. All the contact information will be exchanged at once. Later you can connect the poken to your computer via USB to connect with people. It requires no drivers and works on all platforms including Mac. It has got a very simple interface, all you need to do is create a poken account.

Another interesting thing is that Pokens are green gadgets, they don’t need to be charged!

Pokens are really revolutionary gadgets and have given a new meaning to interaction and networking. Social media changed the way people interact and Pokens have changed the way people use social media!

How much this device should cost?? It is very cheap! Just USD $15. I’ll like to have one but it is useless unless everybody has got one!
