Poken, which was a new era of business card exchanges: The challenges and future of profile exchanges
Tiny gadget that allows "touch" to exchange profiles.
Poken is a small gadget the size of a keychain with a USB port and characters such as animals and aliens on both sides. As mentioned above, it is a profile exchange gadget that allows users to register various profiles, such as their name, e-mail address, SNS account, and blog URL, and exchange them with the Poken of the other party.

I explained VESS Card as "something like a Poken," but he didn't get the message.
exchange of business cards
nishio I wrote this because it reminded me of 2009.
koizuka Poken, it never caught on. The people who got it tried to propagate it, but it was difficult to spread because of the poor availability of the actual situation.
nishio If they don't have it, they can't touch it, so a certain amount has to be poured into the community for it to catch on.
In that sense, VESS Card is likely to generate a strong viral effect because the other side can touch it if their phone has an NFC reader.
@kur: @nishio I miss it.... touch doesn't mean you can check it on the spot, so you can't talk about it! ...
