I have never used them for anything before so I can't really say whether they are helpful or not. I figure I have managed this long without them. What exactly do they do?
I have scanned a QR code to show me how I can use an appliance that I bought. However, not sure what use it has for a blogging site...a business card maybe? Maybe I just don't understand them fully. Why would you use one on your site when all your information is already there?
QR codes act the same way as a link but offline. So, let's say in an advert at your local train station. You scan it with your phone and it takes you to a website. It's a fancy version of a barcode but is linked to something on the internet. It can also be set to do various things such as when you scan it on someone's business card it will download the contact details to your phone, straight into your address/phone book.
Still not sure but Silly Mummy just above your comment pretty much explained it rather simply i just stumbled across it in my looking around my apps for the phone lol

ReplyDeleteMarketers have done research and claim that the QR code is likely to die before going viral. So I dont know.
