If you need to quickly send contact information from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, it's easy to do with iMessage or even good, old-fashioned SMS. Sharing a contact via iMessage is much faster than typing it out, after all. As long as you have the information listed in your iOS Contacts app, you're always only a few taps away from sharing a vCard file (vcf) containing phone numbers, email, street addresses, and much more.
Waring: Because iMessage shares the entire vCard file, that could include more personal information that you intend. For example, sharing your own vCard could include all your Siri relationships. If there are contacts you need to share frequently, and don't want to share every bit of information about, you might want to create a duplicate, less detailed vCard to share.

If the bubble surrounding the contact is blue, it was sent using iMessage. If it is green, the other person does not use iMessage, or iMessage was unavailable, and it was sent using regular SMS/MMS.
