 Here's a handy tip for anyone interested in creating their own QR code so others can easily scan your code and store your business card information... useful for anyone using a relatively new S60 device loaded with a barcode scanner.
So what is a mobile (QR) code?
Simply put, a QR code is an encoded image that contains information, perhaps a website url (some people embed image on their website - Firefox actually has a QR reader that you can embed in the browser), your email address, or your full business card details. Nokia has a useful resource where anyone can easily create their own QR code. Once created, anyone qith a QR reader (barcode scanner) can read the code and store the data.
Do I have a scanner?
If you have a Nokia N82, N93, N93i, N95, N95 8GB, E66, E71, E90 or 6220 Classic (APAC variants) you will find the Nokia barcode reader preinstalled on your device, ready to scan mobile codes around you.
Create your own mobile codes at http://mobilecodes.nokia.com/
Voila, when finished you can save your QR code and have it placed on business cards, your website, a T-shirt or ???
Below is a handy video shared from the kind Nokia Beta Labs people
