I like this idea, but then I'm a geekazoid

QR Codes of the Dead

The story is about putting QR (Quick Response) codes on gravestones to direct people with smartphones to websites with obituaries and other information about the deceased. Thanks to Jenny Pierce, a librarian on one of my lists, for the link.

[I've altered this post slightly, including its title, because I originally made it from my phone and wanted to move the link to the body rather than the title. Hope that doesn't mess anyone up. I really must learn how to select text on my phone and paste it elsewhere. Or, rather, I know how to do that, but seem physically incapable of the feat.) :)

The comments of the Rabid Librarian are © by Elisabeth Eilir Rowan and are the author's own opinions, sometimes curmudgeonly, although rarely malicious. They should not be taken as representative of any other individuals, group, or organisation. Whilst I try to keep my facts straight, this is a journal and not meant to be definitive. Feel free to quote if you like, but please give me credit for anything I wrote and a link back here would be appreciated.
