Business Cards

I got no business cards as of this moment. In fact I have got no business cards since last year when there was a change in a blog site written on the biz card I have.
Is this important, having business cards with me? Have I lost possible business opportunities/clients because I didn’t have these with me?
I’ve an experience I wouldn’t forget. I went to a movie premiere and when I was about to board the train bound for where I can go home, a certain lady with a little boy asked me if I also watched the movie she obviously watched too.
I said, “yes” I watched the movie that she did.
She handed me her plastic business card and asked if I have one. I said I had none.
She sheepishly (or was it just my perception that her voice changed) asked what my blog name was and I gave it.
Then she asked if I have a Facebook account and if I do, can I like her Facebook page?
Ok, next time, I will have business cards with my name printed on it but I will not give these away like I am giving away free candies. I wouldn’t want to deal with a lot of spam emails and solicitation proposals.
What if I missed a good opportunity for a partnership? If others want my services, even if I don’t have these cards, they’d probably look me up.
