Using QR Codes to Find Your Kitty? Why Not?
by Jeff Brown on Jun.13, 2011, under Mobile Web, QR Codes
Here’s a video I came across where someone is trying to find their lost kitty. This is a good use of technology but I have to agree with the publisher of the video, it might have made more sense to add more info to the QR code itself.
As it is, the QR code only give you the phone number to call. It might have been more helpful if the publisher also gave us the kitty’s name and preferably a photo as well. Armed with information like this, I would be able to refer back to the photo and/or description of the cat and be able to call him/her by name if needed.
I applaud the person looking for the cat for using the QR code and I certainly hoe you find/found your cat. But when producing a QR code for digitally delivered content, it is very important to keep your audience in mind and deliver as much information as possible in the smallest amount of space and file size.
