QR code - admin - 07-04-2010

Does anyone have a cell phone that can read QR code? If so can you tell me what these codes are/say? Thanks

Definitions of QR Code on the Web:

?A QR Code is a matrix code (or two-dimensional bar code) created by Japanese corporation Denso-Wave in 1994. The "QR" is derived from "Quick Response", as the creator intended the code to allow its contents to be decoded at high speed.

?A two-dimensional bar code developed for use in Japan that permits the encoding of binary, Kanji, JIS, and alphanumeric information. ...

?This code was originally made by the Japanese company Denso for the use in the car industries. By the now the QR-Code has advanced to the Asian standard code for mobile tagging. In Japan it is tagged 50 million times daily.

If I am not mistaken, my Blackberry reads that type of code but I do not know how to work it. I am sure you can figure it out... ;-)

Hi Martha,

You do it with the camera function. The Blackberry should be running Blackberry Messenger V 5.0

Here's a video How-to that I found:

To be honest, someone did it for me, so I don?t know. If you want, we can tri it. We are leaving to go to the event at Zilch tonight. If you want to meet me there, give me a ring and we can meet outside and try it... (Call me on my cell at: 473-120-0063). Or tomorrow... M ;-)

Thanks IOWAGTO! Now to find some ways to use them... maybe a big For Sale banner hanging from a house - snap the QR into a Blackberry and be taken right to the property's website.
