Posted in I decided to look at QR Codes after being inspired by a link posted by @ekcragg on QR Code wrapping paper. QR Codes provide an easy way for users of smart phones to access URLS, text, phone numbers & SMS. You simply scan the barcode with your phone and are directed to some text, a website etc. For a fun introduction to QR codes I’d recommend Scott’s blog post ‘Practical Applications for QR Codes in the Library’ with a CSI style murder mystery in the library
I am seeing QR codes popping up all over the place, on take away coffee cups as a way to enter competitions, on posters and on the current Waitrose TV advert, although you have to be quick if you want to scan it!
So if you have a smart phone with a QR code reader why not scan the code below
