YOUR OPINION - Are Business Cards still relevant in 2017?

[Alex Babayev]

Hello BP world!

How do you guys feel about Business Cards?
I personally don't like them, and whenever I get them I throw them away. I meet so many people it's impossible to keep up with cards. I prefer to put your info right away into my phone.
However I feel awkward when I go to events and people ask me for my business card and I tell them to check me out on LinkedIn or to got to my website. Do you feel it is a necessity to have them or is it a dying form of information exchange??
