QR Codes

     QR is the short term for "Quick Reaction." These codes can be quickly scanned by almost any smartphone. Most phones, however, will require an additional app to be downloaded. There are TONS of free QR readers out there, though. If you don't know what I mean here are some examples of QR codes:

These can be multiple colors and come in a variety of sizes and complexities. Many products, advertisements, and even store fronts will have QR codes these days. They are a fast and easy way to send people to their website, to help them buy items, etc. These codes don't have to go just to a homepage. They can go to more complex links that have multiple searches in them or tabs:  

These sites send you to various sites, that have special searches and send you straight to the part of the site that the dealer wanted you to go to.







This Quick Reaction to the recognizable QR code makes it easy for popular singers to send fans to their website, or large market app companies can send you to compatible websites.

 Many of these QR readers, like RedLaser or ScanLife, will also scan standard bar codes on products you wish to buy. These apps will allow you to check prices in your area for the product
that you scanned. This helps when
prices are not labelled on the store
shelves as well, making these apps
an important tool on your phone
for budgeting.
