I interview a lot of people and find it amazing when someone actually does all of these. They clearly stand out from the rest.

They are very helpful. Plus, don't be a business card nazi. Not everyone wants to collect your card and you may not know a single person or could have related to them. So pass them out at the end of the conversation NOT at the beginning. I agree with the name tags. They are very helpful.

I went to a networking event recently and the organisers made one fundamental error...they didn't hand out name tags to everyone coming in. I have a terrible memory and I forgot everyone's name within a nano second of them introducing themselves. No matter what level of seniority you are dealing with, give everyone a name tag!
