If you don’t know what a QR code is you’re not alone. Think of the QR code as a new take on the bar code.  These graphic squares feature a two-dimensional bar code that can be read by a special app installed on a smartphone or a tablet equipped with a digital camera.  (QR stands for Quick Response.)

     The QR Code is translated by the app on the smartphone or tablet to do something; it could be dial a phone number, deliver a PDF, or access a website.  The best part is that all this activity can be monitored to find out how successful the QR Code is.

Here are 3 sites that I like to use for generating a QR Code:

     QR codes are just starting to catch on and many businesses are just now learning about them.  Why are they so important? QR Codes are important because they deliver pertinent information RIGHT NOW.
