QR Codes



Aol. gave out T shirts with a one foot QR code (one of those square black and white bar-codes that looks like a maze) on the front.

I was wearing mine when Jeremy, a cashier at Trader Joe’s, snapped a picture with his phone and showed me the website that came up, while he was ringing up my order.

Works.

    I wore one on the back of my shirt as a volunteer at Biotechnology Industry Organization's (BIO) recent annual conference in DC.

    For a discussion of pros and cons of such a technique, see the comments at www.drewsmarketingminute, where he talks about a microbrewery using QR codes for bar games on a beer bottle label.
