I just got done reading about the ‘boom’ in the use of QR codes among business people in Idaho. I really hadn’t paid attention to this technology, but then i thought that putting these codes on the back of a business card might just make sense. So, I thought I’d try generating an eWillys code for kicks.
To see what the code does, first you will need a smart phone (despite my fondness for apple computers, I have an Android Galaxy S Phone which I really like).
You will need to install barcode scanner software (I installed Barcode Scanner from ZXing Team, which I read about here).
Once you install the software, open the program and point it at the image above and it should bring up a link to eWillys on your phone. I thought it was cool!
To generate your own Code for your business (or for any reason), you can drop by kaywa.com. It takes only a few seconds to generate one.
Gives me a headache, just looking at it….why would I want something like this….pure nonsense…. 🙂
Honestly, I’m pretty much in agreement with you, but I thought I’d give it a try anyway 🙂
Obligatory barcode joke: there’s a CueCat buried somewhere in my Willys junk.
maybe there’s a hidden picture in the design if you close one eye…and stare at it.
hmmm .. when I stare at it, I see a Jeep … but I suppose that is no surprise to anyone 😉
