First Impressions: The Art of Business Card Design

Final Update

At the end of the session, everyone just stayed back and chit chatted about various areas as well as catch up with one another. Tune in to RedNinja.tv to find out more about upcoming events!

Update #3

After the sharing session, the panel then went through various business cards that were submitted earlier for critique and there were plenty of learnings that I personally gained through this session. A lot of them have to do with a sense of purpose why a design is in the card and even the fonts used and the spacing between the fonts would then make sense. Definitely a real eye-opener to me, especially one who has zero design background.

Update #2

Jon and Grace are sharing about how they have recently undergone a rebranding with their own personal businesses lately. Both of them went through a big change in terms of how they branded their own personal businesses and also how they started off with a single focus and focused on that starting with their business cards and websites.

Update #1

I am blogging live now from Integricity's office at Centerpoint, Bandar Utama on the RedNinja.tv's event called "First Impressions: The Art of Business Card Design". At the moment we have Shirley and her husband together with Kris Wong from "That Special Occasion" and "Weddings Malaysia" as well as designer Mike Lian from Integricity sitting at the panel sharing about business card designs.

Wednesday Clicks



A very busy weekend with extreme late nights and also thanks to Blizzard for release Starcraft II after more than 10 years mean that I have very little time left to blog :)


  • Did you know that lasers from laser shows can damage your DSLR's sensor? Check it out here.

  • Do you know who Jonas Peterson is? Well, I just absolutely love his work.

  • Can you imagine if Tokyo would have been left untouched and there was no people left in the city, what would it turn out to be? Well you can stop imagining and see some of the amazing images here.

  • Here is how you can make your own iPhone 4 steadicam. Totally cool!

  • Apple released a bundle of new upgrades and products yesterday. This include new iMacs, Mac Pros, a magic trackpad, rechargeable batteries and a 27" monitor. Head over here to find out more.

  • Someone found Ansel Adam's negatives which is now valued at a whopping USD$200million. Now I wished that someone was me instead.


Have a great week ahead. For those of you playing Starcraft II, do make sure you keep yourself hydrated and get enough sleep!

Wednesday Clicks

I really can't believe the weekend just flew by and I won a wooden spoon! Will talk about the wooden spoon another time but it is time for a Wednesday Clicks!


  • Still feeling the World Cup Blues? Or is your body clock waking you up at 1.45am in the morning? If that still happens to you, perhaps this gallery of the best photos from the Fifa 2010 world cup can help you sleep.

  • If you are a Mac laptop user, check out this nifty free tool called Airport Location. Airport Location is a small menubar app for Snow Leopard laptops and desktops. When you ask it to it records dozens of settings by taking a Snapshot of your computer just the way it is setup at that time. You can have as many Snapshots as you want – one for Travel, one for Office, one for Home, one for watching Movies etc.

  • Singapore will be receiving their iPad's this Friday. I wonder when Malaysia will get ours.

  • iTunes 9.2.1 is now available, go download it now from Apple

  • Where do you stand with this sort of photo manipulation? What is your take on that?

  • The Inspire+ Seminar in Kuala Lumpur will be happening this Saturday! Sign up now here. If you do, look out for me as I will be attending it as well :)


Have a great week ahead everyone!
