Have you ever wished that giving someone your contact information with an iPhone or Android were as simple as handing them a business card?

With Bump, it is.

Bump uses the built in GPS in modern smart phones to tell when two such devices are in the same place at the same time. If they both vibrate at once (say, by bumping one against the other) it will let you connect your phones to transfer contacts cards, event invitations, photos, and social media account information.

In other words, just about anything you might want to put on your business card and then some, still in the palm of your hand. But unlike paper products, you can change your details without having to buy a new stock, and you never need to worry about running out.
