QR Codes

[reynardo]

are just a source of information, and as they're 2-dimensional, they can hold a lot more than a barcode.

You can read them with a QR reader on your smartphone (easily downloaded), or pop it into a QR web reader. Most of the time, the QR code will just hold a URL - for instance, if you're looking at a picture of a house for sale, the QR code attached will be the real estate agents' web page for the house's listing.

You can, though, put just straight text into a QR code.

So - try this.




You can upload the code's URL (https://c1.staticflickr.com/3/2922/14476579347_1c64aaec08_m.jpg) into this page and it will decode it for you.

And yes, this might be showing off a little.

Heee! Very cool, Rey. A little beyond my non techie brain though, still, very cool.
