Retaggr is basically a widget in the shape of a card that can display your picture and links to various social networking sites you partake in. It’s more or less a snapshot of the social media sites that you are a part of.

A few times I’ve heard these widgets referred to as online business cards. I’m not sure if that is an accurate description. It’s more of an online social media card.

I first heard about Retaggr in an article I read on Mashable.com. Now, I use it on my social media page. I don’t think it’s the most pleasing design in the world, but it works for me and it’s super easy to setup and use. I’d be interested to know if there are any other online “business” cards out there similar to this one. If you’re privy to one, let me know.
