Did you know that MOO translated the new Facebook Cover Photo concept to the MOO Business Card format - mirroring the fonts, layout and iconography of the new Facebook Timeline? They gave a bunch of them away to kick start the initiative and mine arrived in the mail last week!  As you can see, Finger-Puppet Obama was as excited by this turn of events as I was (and yes, that is my newly shellac manicured thumb holding the card)!  I've always been a big fan of MOO and they just keep getting cooler and cooler.  I can't see anybody getting my printing business away from them.
