			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have started my own journey into the social media after few months using twitter and I guess it is time to make some contribution towards it. Since I love graphic designing, thus I decide to produce a <strong>twitter name tag</strong> and I called it <strong>twittag</strong>. It can be used for <em>tweetup</em> (twitter meet up) or any social networking event where twitter is a common thing for all.</p>
<p><strong>Why name tag?</strong></p>
<p>I have read a book by Audy Bounds, <em><a href="http://www.jellyeffect.com/" target="_blank">The Jelly Effect</a></em> and in this books he said that there are three things that you need to bring to a networking event &#8211; business card, pen and a name tag.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t want to talk about networking here instead I would like to share with you the name tag template that I have created and used during the <a href="http://www.cardiffwebscene.com/events/ignite-cardiff-2" target="_blank">Ignite Cardiff</a> on the 8th March 2009.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://mohdrafie.co.uk/download/twittag_by_rafie.zip"><img class="size-full wp-image-512 aligncenter" title="twitter name tag" src="http://www.mohdrafie.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/twitternametag_by_rafie.jpg" alt="twitternametag_by_rafie" width="500" height="209" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Download the twitter name tag" href="http://mohdrafie.co.uk/download/twittag_by_rafie.zip" target="_blank">Download the PSD file</a> &#8211; 600KB</p>
<p><strong>How to use it?</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Download the PSD file above.</li>
<li>Modify as you wish &#8211; Change the font*, colour, etc.</li>
<li>Print and cut trim it accordingly.</li>
<li>Wear it proudly!</li>
</ul>
<p>*I use <strong>VAG Round</strong> for the <strong>@mohdrafie</strong> and <strong>Graphic &amp; Web Designer</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>How does it actually look like?</strong></p>
<p>It is pretty simple but I am sure you are going to love it. Yup, on the right is me.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-522" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="mr_twittag" src="http://www.mohdrafie.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/mr_twittag.jpg" alt="Twittag demo" width="500" height="150" /></p>
<p><strong>Can I use other twitter birds?</strong></p>
<p>Of course, help yourself. Below are few links to other website that design twitter birds and you can use download and use it.</p>
