Information about vCards

A vCard contains your address data; current versions are 2.1 und 3.0; version 4.0 will be available soon.
Nearly all mailingsystems or organizers support vCards; they could be generated and exported for any entry in their build in address book.
Even cellphones work with vCards (e.g. exchange of addresses with other cellphones).
Frequently used mailing systems / organizers are MS-Outlook and Thunderbird or your Cellphone.
Once generated, you can use this vCard over and over to exchange your addresses.
In case of changes on your personal data (e.g. Family Name after marriage), you simply can generate a new one.
