How long does it take for somebody to receive my #TwtBizCard?

Short answer: As long as it takes for the tweet to show up on Twitter Search (usually a couple of seconds.)
A little more explanation:
After you send a tweet with the #
tatbizcard hashtag, we perform searches on Twitter for these tweets every 5 minutes. So, it could take up to 5 minutes for the person to receive our @
reply saying they have a business card @
TwtBizCard (if it's their first BizCard.)
However, if they log in to their account before that time, we always check if there are new cards available and display them right away. So, as soon as it shows up on Twitter Search, it's available at their My twtBizCard.
As a sender, the way you see you BizCard has been delivered is if it shows up in your "Sent to people" tab. If it's there, it means it's available at the receiver's account.
If you don't see it on your TwtBizCard, please make sure your tweet is showing up on Twitter Search:
