    I've just finished redesigning mine actually. They're normal printed ones, the design is a PCB with the pertinent details written on the main DIP-28 package.

    Possibly, but will the lazy hiring manager be bothered to navigate to a website to get the details when everyone else puts them in clear print on a handy little piece of card?

    It's right up there with 'fancy' and/or coloured fonts on a c.v. to try to make the candidate stand out. It works, but not always in a good way.

    When I was younger the freebies were useful as well.
