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[I've altered this post slightly, including its title, because I originally made it from my phone and wanted to move the link to the body rather than the title.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.) :)

Thanks to Blogger, there is a mobile version for this blog

that isn't so busy. If you access this page from a mobile device, it should automatically give you that simplified version. You can also point your camera (if you have an application that reads QR codes) to the left sidebar and scan said code directly under the Rabid Librarian picture, or scan it here:

Hopefully that should make browsing simpler if you're using a phone or other mobile device. :)
