Adobe Air QR Code Generator Application

Tonight on twitter, the adobe air twitter account posted the following.
“@adobeairme: With the QR Code generator application for Adobe® AIR™ you can create your own QR Codes for mobile tagging http://fb.me/uIdO92lh” Which takes you to the page below.

From the post: http://adobeair.me/qr-code-generator

With the QR Code generator application for Adobe® AIR™ you can create your own QR Codes for mobile tagging. The QR Code itself contains several types of information such as a weblink, a complete short message with target number, a phone number or simple text. With a camera phone one can read the information in the code and immediately start the corresponding action – like accessing a mobile website or sending a short message to the target number. That is where the code got its name from: “QR” for Quick Response. To be able to read these 2D barcodes you need a small software on your mobile phone. We recommend the free Kaywa Reader from our friends at Kaywa, which is available for many phones: http://reader.kaywa.com/en. Please note that this version of the application only works online, we may provide an offline version in the future. For more information about QR Codes in general, please have a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_Code and for the latest news http://mobile.kaywa.com/ Also have a look at this coole Website for the use of the QR Code: http://www.petshopboys.co.uk/splash.html

If you’re looking for a quick and easy way to create a QR Code, this Adobe air app may be what you have been looking for.

Janet Jackson + QR Codes = The For Colored Girls Movie Poster with QR Code mobile experience

For Colored Girls is a movie based on a stage play by Tyler Perry and will be available in movie theaters on November 5. Today while reading about QR Codes I saw a post on the 2D Code blog called For Colored Girls Gets a QR Code. The post says “Lionsgate has teamed up with Augme to promote the upcoming movie “For Colored Girls” with a QR Code poster” and also says they used a negative QR Code in terms of black, white and red usages which may not work with all QR Code readers. I understand they wanted the QR Code to match the text and Janet Jackson’s shirt but if you want it be truly effective why not keep it simple and create a standard QR Code that works with most QR Code readers? The post does mention once the QR Code is scanned it takes you to a mobile site for more information about the For Colored Girls movie as you can see below.

It’s good to see more movies and agencies use QR Codes to interact with potentially movie viewers and learn more about them at the same time. One question I’m constantly being asked is when do I think QR Codes will become main stream. WIth the way marketing agencies and other brands are pushing QR Codes it will be faster than it took for most to catch on to the Twitter / Facebook social media wave. Plus being that QR Codes are something you can easily track if done right, you can measure the results and show the value of using them without being too expensive outside of creating a good mobile experience for QR Code readers to scan.


For Colored Girls will be in theaters November 5th! Have you seen the trailer? http://bit.ly/ColoredGirls -Janet’s TeamTue Oct 05 22:58:36 via webJanet Jackson
