I'd actually lean towards electronic. Paper is special, as you guys have suggested, and you can use it to particularly impress someone. Electronic is immediate. It tells the interviewer that you have your sh*t together - you are prompt and thorough and thoughtful. While your meeting is still fresh in their mind, you're giving them more reasons to feel warm & fuzzy about you. Paper is fun and I do appreciate thank you cards but I rarely get them (maybe 1 in 20 interviews) but not required. From someone who interviews for a living … I’d actually lean towards electronic.

That's just my .02 cents, for whatever it's worth.
