Drop Blog: QR Codes

Wow, me and PIP_X went to play something interesting while helping me out with my PDA phone.

If you had a QR code reader, then this code will bring you to my blog! Interesting fun... here is the link to Kaywa QR-Code Generator

If you want to promote your blog or other online content to mobile users via QR Codes, manage the linked content and the Codes you should check out www.Snappr.net.

You can also 'Make Stuff' there and print your Codes on shirts or other apparel.

Thanks Philip, but there isn't any applications for Windows Mobile from Snappr.net?

Tze, Snappr offers easy creation and management of your Codes and content. The resulting Codes are QR Codes and can be read with any QR Code reader out there. Snappr does not offer a Windows Mobile based reader as of now.

There is the e-mail address Snappr@Snappr.net to which you can send e-mails/MMS with a picture of a Code attached. The service will try to decode the picture and sends you a reply message with a link to the content. That should work on any device, which supports e-mail/MMS.

Of course that is not a long-term solution but rather an easy way to help lower the barrier for potential users to interact with the 2D Codes. A reader application on the phone is more convenient and works faster. You should check out quickmark for a windows mobile based reader. I used that one on my windows mobile-device and it worked quiet well.
