Underground: The Rebels of Technology and Their Secret Code

QR Code
Technology is moving at the speed of light.  Visionaries leave no stone unturned.  You may have seen this symbol before.  If you're like me you probably had no idea what it was.  It's called a Quick Response Code (QR) it's the key to an underground of advertisers, marketers and entrepreneurs.  You see it on adverts, in the paper or on magazines.  While we have been ignoring its presence; it's been growing.  Like many movements it relies on early adopters to spread the word.  Then it's up to the world to decide if it's worthy or if it was just a neat fad. 

It's a new language, a secret code that offers cultural change and announces an opportunity for growth.  It provides a new way to exchange ideas in a space the size of a postage stamp.  Does it have the power to change our world?  You decide.

If you have a smart phone, download a QR Reader. On the iPhone I use Scan but there are many free readers. It's amazingly fast.  QR codes can link to a website, an email or send a message.  The image in this post has a message.  Give it a try.  How can we use this technology?  If you don't have a code yet, let me know and I will help you get one FREE.
