I'm pretty sure, I gave two perfectly good examples for their use.
A game like Zombie Run could do some pretty cool stuff with QR codes spread about in the city.

And calling them dangerous is missing the point since most QR scanners show you their link before executing (in link related uses) and any tard that would use them in a malicious way,could do the same with a normal url link.

Yea a QR code version of that barcode scanner pokemon style game would be cool. I think people are working on it.

Business cards might still be useful if you work at a trade show, or you own a restaurant and have a stack for people on their way out, but not many uses for something so analog in our digital present, particularly if you work in any professional industry. Much easier to say, "here, let me send you my vcard" or just... oh, I dunno... have them scan the QR code that's already on your smartphone.

I have my email address saved as a QR code on my phone.

Great idea. So then people can easily scan the QR code from your phone's display and mail you what they want to say instead of, oh, just saying it.

Exactly. People love fannying about needlessly with tech so I've actually used it on quite a few occasions. It's neither quicker nor easier but it's quite appealing and the novelty is fun.

Didn't see it at first, it's like it's perfectly camouflaged.

Um, pretty sure you'd be hard pressed to find someone here in a more "professional industry" than me (not sure though

), and I use business cards all the time. Every meeting with a new client, seminars we host, LabVIEW classes I teach, etc., etc.

Pops up email and phone number. QR droid etc will let you send an email or make a call straight from that.

Glad I was able to give some of you a break from obsessive Minecraft/IRCing while I was out enjoying my school's year end show with my thesis on display. I graduated and picked up a few new projects too. For those of you with my portfolio site as your homepage, keep checking for updates
