Not only do the new Windows 8 phones come <a href="http://tappinn.com/home/nfc-mobile-marketing">NFC enabled</a>, they also have a built in QR code reader! When you open up the camera app on the phone there is setting that brings up the Bing lens which reads QR codes, MS tags, Barcodes and text. This is pretty impressive. <br />

<a href="http://soundcloud.com/">SoundCloud</a> is an audio publishing platform that allows for easy audio and music promotion. <a href="http://tappinn.com/">Tappinn</a> has just introduced a new feature that lets members embed SoundCould audio within their <a href="http://tappinn.com/home/mobile-website-builder">mobile websites</a> and use QR codes to deliver them. QR codes and audio, such as music, are a great combination because music and mobility are hand in hand.<br />
<br />
Scan the QR code to get an idea of how f**king cool this is. Anybody can build a <a href="http://tappinn.com/">mobile page with SoundCloud</a> for free on Tappinn. Hopfully we see some creative applications using SoundCloud and QR codes in the future!<br />

Starbucks is using <a href="http://tappinn.com/">QR codes and mobile websites</a> to encourage in-store customers to sample coffee and vote for their favorite brew. The QR codes are presented on the <a href="http://hub.tappinn.com/blog/bid/116920/How-To-Deliver-Mobile-Coupons-on-Tappinn">coupon handouts</a> being given out to taste testers. I happened to snag a few, duh!<br />
<br />
This is tremendous way to interact with customers on the mobile web! Starbucks used voting and <a href="http://hub.tappinn.com/blog/bid/92985/NEW-Allow-Facebook-Comments-on-Your-QR-Code-Mobile-Websites">Facebook commenting from QR codes</a><a href="http://hub.tappinn.com/blog/bid/92985/NEW-Allow-Facebook-Comments-on-Your-QR-Code-Mobile-Websites"> </a>to facilitate a mobile conversation amongst customers about new products. Once the vote is cast, it appears on the users Facebook wall to further broadcast the conversation. Starbucks continues to raise the bar with how we interact with mobile customers, remembering that mobile <i>is</i> social, and authentic conversation and opinions rule.<br />

<a href="http://ebayinkblog.com/2011/11/18/ebay-launches-give-a-toy-stores/">Ebay</a> has launched another <a href="http://qranywhere.blogspot.com/2011/10/ebay-inspiration-shop-qr-codes.html">mobile interactive storefront</a> with QR codes, this time with <a href="http://toysfortotsnyc.org/about.html">Toys for Tots</a> to encourage toy donations during the holiday season. Shoppers can simply scan the QR code related to the toy in the window display that they wish to donate and be instantly directed to a <a href="http://www.tappinn.com/home/mobile-website-builder">mobile landing page</a> to complete the donation. The unique storefront is located on 35th and Broadway in New York City and another one in San Francisco on Post Street near the Union Square district. This isn't Ebay's first dynamic mobile shopping experience using a window storefront. Last month they built an "<a href="http://hub.tappinn.com/blog/bid/91775/Ebay-Opens-Inspiration-Shop-With-QR-Codes-in-NYC">Inspiration Shop</a>" that allows shoppers to make mobile purchases from the street by scanning the QR code in the store window next to the product. Below is a video of the Ebay Give-A-Toy Store that I shot. Enjoy!<br />

I'm not a fan of QR codes that lead directly to video, so this is disappointing. However, the <a href="https://bitly.com/PepDig+">scan numbers</a> for the cup are encouraging.

Actually it's GREAT! There is still a lot potential for QR codes and part of that is due to sheer lack of devices. A person is not going to know much about QR codes if they don't have a modern smartphone that can exploit them. The speediness of scanning a QR code with today's modern smartphone is faster than any other form of "on demand" content. The portion of the market cannot see this is still about 65%. We are still in the early phase of QR codes and haven;t negun to scratch the surface. This video proves it.<br />

<a href="http://www.ebayinc.com/news#20111020006549">Ebay</a> has done it! Teaming with designer Jonathan Adler, they have built a one of a kind store front in New York City that empowers mobile shoppers to buy products on their phones using <a href="http://www.qranywhere.blogspot.com/">QR codes.</a> <br />
<br />
The "Inspiration" Shop is located on Park Avenue but doesn't allow visitors inside. The intention is to make products available to buy 24/7 from a shoppable store front using <a href="http://tappinn.com/">QR codes and mobile landing pages</a>. The massive "always open" windows showcase new, must have merchandise for the Fall season. Of course the products are available instantly to simply purchase from your phone! Check out pics below. Enjoy!<br />

<a href="http://www.tresemme.com/">Tresemme</a> got clever with <a href="http://qranywhere.blogspot.com/">QR codes and advertising</a> to promote <a href="http://www.mbfashionweek.com/">Mercedes-Benz Fashion week</a> in New York City. These bus kiosk posters are unique and catchy, not to mention they are connected to a <a href="http://www.tappinn.com/">custom mobile website</a> dedicated to Fashion Week and Tresemme products. This is fantastic example of brands harnessing the mobile web with tailored content for unique contexts.<br />

<a href="http://sallyhogshead.com/">Sally Hogshead’s</a> book, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0061714704?ie=UTF8&tag=thenextwave-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=0061714704">Fascinate</a>, explains the 7 triggers
that ignite fascination and ways you can incorporate it into your brand. The
book was fantastic and it immediately got me thinking about <a href="http://qranywhere.blogspot.com/">QR codes </a>and what
makes them fascinating to the masses. Since our brains are wired to crave
fascination, <a href="http://2d-code.co.uk/">2D barcodes</a> honestly look like the <i>perfect</i> prompt heading into a
mobile future with faster devices and cheaper data plans. Here’s why. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_code">QR Codes</a> really do fascinate people. I’m not just saying
this because I have a blog about QR codes and a company based around them. I
think it can actually be proven. There’s
a unique combination of mystery, expectancy and empowerment behind QR codes that
cannot be explained by previous generations of marketers. Sure, there ARE other
emerging technologies that bridge the physical-digital world gap, but can any
of them compete for fascination with QR codes? </div>

Sally makes the case that the first 9 seconds are most critical
to any personal introduction. You can
easily argue that the same rules apply for 2D barcodes and the branded content that
is behind them. QR codes start a
conversation with their natural fascination triggers, but the brand must
deliver the correct experience to extend the conversation. This is where relevancy
and value come in. The voice that your brand sends is return of a QR code scan can
make or break your first impression. This is why <a href="http://www.tappinn.com/">custom mobile landing pages</a>
built around context are so important to <a href="http://www.tappinn.com/">successful QR codes</a>.</div>

Sally Hogshead's<a href="http://sallyhogshead.com/category/fascination-triggers/"> 7 triggers of fascination</a> are below along with my two cents about how each can influence QR code scanning. According to the book most brands dial in on
a primary and secondary trigger that work off each other. You could make the case
for several of these could be primary triggers for qr codes. I say all these
triggers can be influences for QR codes! Leave a comment and let me know what triggers
of fascination you think QR codes ignite. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>#1 Power</b> – Knowledge is power. Consumers
want command. I call this "instant gradification-education" The act of scanning a 2D code produces instant results. Like
search, power shifts to the consumer who is hunting for content. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>#2 Prestige</b> – Taste makers. Tech snobs? This was a primary trigger in the beginning of QR code marketing, before they became so
accessible. It was prestigious when
Ralph Lauren put out the first QR codes in the U.S. They were a symbol of the future without being useful. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>#3 Mystique</b> – All about arousing
curiosity. Hmm, big win for QR codes here! This is where “QR codes are ugly”
actually helps. They have a maze-like aesthetic and are mysterious. We all naturally want know the
answer to the puzzle. QR codes are ripe with mystique and a puzzle that's fast to solve. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>#4 Alarm-</b> Visual
urgency. This can definitely be a huge
trigger for QR codes. Also, <a href="http://qranywhere.blogspot.com/2011/07/new-qr-code-frame-ideas-from-tappinn.html">QR code frames</a> play an important role. The more value that is built in beyond the QR
code, the more people will be likely to scan. I think this will be huge for QR rewards
in the future. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>#5 Vice-</b> QR code
scanning is a quality pleasure? Not yet, but could be considering the offer ;) </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>#6 Passion- </b>Cash in on your passionate followers. These are people who will scan your QR code because it's YOU. Please don't let them down. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<b style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;">#7 Trust-</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;"> This is what QR codes lack. The reason for this is complicated. As a marketing community this is what we need to build on. Actually there IS a great way to recognize and trust a qr codes experience. Scan one with the <a href="http://tappinn.com/home/mobile-website-creation-platform">red square in the corner</a>. </span></span><br />
