What can you do with the QR Code?

11月

23日

Imagine in the super market, you find a fresh produce with the funny looking bar code like the one you see on the right.

You use your cellular phone's camera to scan it. It takes you to a web site that tells you who, when, how the produce was grown and delivered to the supermarket.

Imagine again, you walk up to a restaurant, you see a bar code at the entrance. You scan it and it takes to the web site where it ask for your email. You enter the email then the system will send you a 20% off coupon to your cellular phone.

The bar code you see here is called QR Code. It is very big in Europe and Asia. And it is coming to the US. By scanning the QR Code on this screen, it takes you to http://www.pspinc.com/qr. Clock on the link to learn more about QR Code and PSPINC programming capabilities.

Morning Walk

I picked up Tiny (Mayumi's Dog) this morning at her house and walked River Trail near the 60 Acres Field. The field was closed for construction ... what are they building?

The city or county mast have so much money that they need to burn. Or they may have a very close relationship with the companies or contractors. When almost all businesses are trying to save money, any government or agencies trying to spend the money of people who are trying their best to save money is not right.

My first car in the US

What is your first car?

My first car in the US when I came to the US was a FORD PINTO. No, I did not buy this car. I rented this car for about a month before I purchased a red VW Bug which I drive for about a year before it caught fire. Then I bought Datsun B210. I drive this car until I graduated in 1983 and went back to Japan.

My first car in Japan was Nissan Z 2+2.
