The best Guerilla Marketing thing I do, is ensure my business card makes it into any book/magazine that I can get my hands on.<p>Whenever I'm down at the news agent, I ensure I slip my business card into any Magazine that a small business owner might be interested in (Time, BRW, MyBusiness) and I do the same at a bookstore I visit whenever I'm there.<p>I would do the same for libraries, but I figure that it would be a waste.<p>This has actually been the most cost effective (and profitable) thing I've done and have generated a good amount of business out of it as it literally gets my business card into the hands of people who might find use for my services.

Cool card. The code not so much... e.g. anybody notice the comments?<p><pre><code> nc = new NetConnection(); // New Connection mic = Microphone.get(); // Configure Microphone </code></pre> Oh dear.

Check out Paul Heckbert's ray tracing business card at <a href="http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~ph/" rel="nofollow">http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~ph/</a> (you'll need to load the page, then search for "business card"). The files themselves are chunks of PostScript code -- they can be viewed with GhostScript or Illustrator.
