Quy.com 2.0 is now live! (Magntize vs. Card.ly)

I have been contemplating what to do with my Quy.com web site for awhile. I've had the Quy's site is under construction text on my site for way too long. I just discovered Posterous and was thinking of pointing my Quy.com domain directly to my Posterous blog but I also wanted to display my Twitter streams as well as activity from my other social networking sites like Flickr.  That's when I came across this article on Mashable on social media business cards and found exactly what I wanted.  Magntize allows you to build a digital business card online that could display all my contact info, including my RSS/social streams from Twitter, Flickr, and this Posterous blog.  There was another site, Card.ly, that I also considered but I liked Magntize's ease of use and ability to display my social stream for free. Card.ly charges $2.99/month if you want to add your streams.  Card.ly does have more free themes (27) than Magntize (4) but I was able to find a Magntize theme that I liked.  The only drawback is when you want a custom domain. Magntize charges you $9/month or $99/year while Card.ly ony charges you $24.99/year (about $2/month).  Magntize justifies the cost by giving you a free domain when you buy their "Pro" account but if you already have a custom domain, then I would've liked a cheaper option.

I decided to use Magntize because I loved their ease of use, support for free RSS/social streaming, and speedy support. When I had questions about setting up my custom domain, one of the co-founders, David, answered my question quickly. When I found a bug with one of their themes, another co-founder, Aaron, quickly fixed the problem.  For the sake of comparison, you can view my Magntize business card vs the Card.ly card that I have set up.
