How To Use QR Codes To Promote Your Self And Your WebsiteWhat is a qr code? To be honest until only a few weeks ago I didn't know either. I have seen them in various places and knew that they worked like some kind of bar code that you could read with a smart phone, but that's about all I knew.
After spending a little bit of time finding out a bit more about them I now realize how useful they are. I can use them to point you to a web address like I have done with this qr code on the left. I can have one printed on a Business Card that will give you all my contact details. iTunes use them to help you download Apps.
