As it turns out, the term “athletic build” can mean a lot of things.

Just one of the many interesting tidbits you’ll learn while meeting people on the Internet. (Another? “Walks on the beach” = “first-date sex.” Who knew?)

Perhaps it’s time to get back to basics.

Instead of trolling the faceless superhighways of the Web, announce your presence with your very own calling cards. (Which you will hand out only to pre-approved recipients.) Cocopink’s designs — glossy, standard business card-size stock printed with your name and phone number — include colorful stripes, retro dots, vintage black-and-white photographs, single asterisks, and such.

Getting your own cards is the first step to making all kinds of new friends — the old-fashioned way.

Because you should really be able to see someone’s profile before you, you know, read his profile.
