After much procrastination, I have finally acquired some MOO MiniCards for RGL. For those who don't know what these are: they're half-height business cards with a photo on the front and text information (in this case our name, URL, and email address) on the back. They're about a tenner per 100 cards, and you can use as many different photos per pack as you like - you can have them all the same, or all different, or somewhere in between.
The reason I got them is that I keep finding myself talking about RGL in the pub, and it's sometimes easier to give people a card than to find pen and paper. (Well, and also because they're really cute.) But those of you who're more heavily into promoting your guides (I seem to remember Ivor has mentioned publicity re OGL in the past?) might wish to get some and use them more aggressively. They're quite attractive little things, so you might be able to persuade pubs etc to have a pile of them on the bar or wherever.

I'm a big fan of moo and have acquired a bunch of their cards. I've also got a couple of "money off your first order" codes knocking around if anyone would like one.
