I’ve never been a huge fan of QR codes. I mean, it’s neat technology and all, and it’s really easy to implement…daresay I think in the right setting it’s probably reasonably effective too. But I couldn’t help feeling it’s too much of a trendy thing…the minute people start realizing they’re not getting that much value-added information out of these things I think its use will slow down?<\/p>\n

Anyway, I’ve been known to be wrong about trends before so I stayed pretty neutral about it whenever a client would ask me about it. As a designer, I hated the fact they’re brutally ugly. I’d hate to spend all my effort putting together a nice business card for someone just to have this obnoxious blotch of tech vomit splattered on it.<\/p>\n

As it turns out I learned recently that there is a certain 30% level of tolerance on these codes. So some designers have taken it upon themselves to decorate them up<\/a>. Kinda neat! I’ll have to keep this in mind for the next time someone asks for one. (via Mashable<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
