Stoozing which card next

in Credit cards
Hi, I have started stoozing a little while ago and have and Egg with 12 limit and a FD with 25 limit. I'm now looking to get another card, can anyone guide me to a particular one and reccommend what the next one should be and why? I was steering to a Capital One next, good or not?
Obviously long term 0% is good and cards that often give high limits. This will probably be my last card for a while as I want to keep some of the other good ones to take over my EGG and FD balances in 6 months and it may take some work to cover my FD limit.
Any info/experiences appreciated.

First post - go easy ;D
First go through a cashback/reward site typical "cashback" around £10.
Second - go for new latest offers (keen to accept) eg - Halifax old standing offer hard to get accepted. Scottish Widows new & accept where others decline ( expect £15'sh cashback ).
Third - new offers will need to beat old offers ( Scottish Widows) - part of Lloyds (Accrue Card) but beat Lloyds 0% offer ( on cashback at least)
Fourth - if you have web site or email list sign up for the affiliate program first - affiliate commision for Scottish Widows is £31. ( This option is not a quick fix/get rich solution - cashback/reward sites are easier answer )
Hope it helps ;D0 -
Fifth: Wait. According to Martin's last Tips newsletter:DON'T APPLY FOR NEW CREDIT CARDS YET! My 'don't apply unless necessary' call as better deals may be launched in the last half of Jan still applies.0

Has anybody heard of any new deals though? Plan to apply for HSBC and FD cards, maybe I am being impatient - after all, we are just at the beginning of the last half of Jan.It's always the grass that suffers, irrespective of whether the elephants are fighting or making love !!!0

Eagerly await mondays post
got itchy fingers though ......
For FD - need to apply for the current before the gold card0
