QR Codes: like barcodes, just better

Quick Response Code
A Quick Response Code

QR Codes, oswa Quick Response Codes, are all the rage nowadays. Ou konnen, those black-and-white barcode-looking thingies that show up on magazines, posters, and even some t-shirts.

A QR Code is actually fairly similar to a barcode: it’s an image that encodes data tankou URL, phone numbers, words, and more. You can even take a picture and sort of turn it into a QR code (the picture is uploaded to the internet and the QR code encodes the URL of the picture.) Sure you lose some aesthetic value, but hey.

HTML5, CSS3, ak JavaScript: tan kap vini an nan sit entènèt la

Anvan mwen kòmanse, yon vwayaj kout nan istwa…

Li nan 1999. Internet Explorer 5 se bagay cho, jarèt nan teknoloji ap grandi. Ak Mariano Rivera se Mondyal Seri MVP. Ak jèn (alte.)

Yon pwomotè entènèt chita nan òdinatè l ', bwè kafe ak ekri kèk kòd. Li vle fè yon jwèt navigatè ki baze sou. Sèl fason pou li kapab fè sa a se sèvi ak Flash platfòm Adobe a fè yon fim entè-aktif ak Afiche ki nan sit entènèt li.

Li vle mete yon videyo sou sit l 'twò. YouTube son tankou non an nan yon liy tren fwomaj, pa gen anyen plis. Pwomotè nou an gen fè yon fim Flash pou sa, twò.

Bliye kondui flash ak Dropbox

I’m sure this happens to a lot of people: you have an important file on your flash drive and you need to hand it in, print it out, or take it somewhere else. Only problem? You lose your flash drive. It’s happened to me far too many times.

So that’s why I decided to eschew flash drives and emailing stuff to myself and use the power of the internet.

I found Dropbox, which lets me access my files from anywhere as long as I have an internet connection. I don’t even need a flash drive any more; I can just store everything I need on my Dropbox account.
