You might have seen these rather odd looking garphics starting to appear on business cards, websites, magazine adverts and a whole host of other strange places. To the human eye they don't look like much more than a pettern, but intall a QR Reader app on your smart phone and scan the image. It will open up your browser window and take you to a sign up form on my website. QR codes are the latest way to store large amounts of information within a graphic, think of them as a new type of barcode. They work by adding a 2nd dimension to a traditional barcode, meaning more information can be stored than in a tradional barcode, like a URL to a page on your website. Salcombe Web Design can generate and add a QR code to any medium, your website, your business cards, your letterheads or just about anything!
