Neighbors BUSN 1190: R. Black

     The QR (Quick Response) code is an output device that allows the creator of the code to more efficiently communicate a message. Kneese (2014) sated “ The QR code’s history is intrinsically tied to a quest for efficiency.” In business, QR code efficiencies can be achieved through space savings in advertising and by saving customers’ time. A few key words in a print ad can spark a customer’s interest, they can scan the QR code, and then read it later. The QR code allows the customer to scan, and then to quickly be on their way.      Kneese (2014) wrote about a unique use for QR codes: encoding information and applying the QR code to a memorial headstone at a cemetery. I live in Georgia, but many of my family members lived and died in California. I rarely travel to California:      Families now often live in geographically disparate areas, meaning that frequently                               visiting gravesites is not a possibility.
