MiniCards mayhem

Business cards are so passe. Or at least, they were until Skype got its hands on them.
Skype MiniCards, designed by the creative bods at Moo.com, are cuter, smaller and sassier than traditional business cards, and they're meant for sharing your virtual identity rather than your business identity. So you can customise them with your Skype name, SkypeIn number, blog address and any other contact details you want, along with speech bubbles, smilies or mood messages.
But the best thing about MiniCards is that Skype and Moo have got 10,000 packs of them to give away for free to Skype blog readers. To get your pack of 10, go to Moo's Skype page and type the password 'freebie' where it says 'enter promo code'. The offer starts today and runs until next Monday, so get in there now and claim your cards!
P.s. The fun doesn't stop when the freebie offer ends. If you buy a pack of 100 cards, you may find a Golden Card tucked into your wad – and that means you've won up to 120 of free SkypeOut minutes.

I tried to order some of these, but every time I tried to type something into the order form, the cursor started jumping around, seemingly at random. That's an annoyance when you're just putting in your details... but a real showstopper when you're trying to type in a password. (I'm using Firefox v2 if that's any help?)

I went through all the form filling, put in the freebie code, and it tells me it's invalid!!! And that's on the first day of the offer, doesn't bode well for the rest trying later!
Waste of time!
