Fox Network QR Codes. The Mobile Apocalypse Starts Now.

Fox Code. Gotta love it!. FOX Network has announced that they will be running QR codes after commercials to promote their fall lineup. I caught one last night for the new series, Lone Star. This is the 2nd best thing to a Facebook QR code IMO. No doubt that it brings HUGE exposure to QR codes and it's coming from a medium that had been an underdog to this point, TV. The code flashed quickly so I had to rewind my DVR to get the scan. It will be interesting to see how this evolves and if viewers pick up on it.

Apples and QR Codes

I have been playing abound with overlaying QR codes with images. Fruit works great! The vivid colors give enough contrast to do some awesome stuff. Here is a QR code and an apple! This is yet another example of why QR codes are better to work with for designers than other 2D barcodes. The versatility and room for freestyle allows designers have more fun!
