The story/problem:
While hunting for a decent used car using the usual methods: craigslist, ebay, etc. I was on the freeway when a car drove by me with a For Sale sign in the window. The make and model were what I was looking for, but how would I ever be able to find out more (mileage, condition, etc) and contact this person? We’d both have to be parked to safely get all that info from the For Sale sign. Or try some good old fashioned tail-gaiting.. but didn’t want to risk denting my future car! A similar situation happened when I was apartment hunting and seeing For Rent signs in home windows as I drove around. What if the world ran on short-tags, what if I could spot a huge printed #2N, know to go to a website, and look it up for more info?<p>The solution:
We came up with TerseTag as the solution, allowing people to say everything they want with a QR code and short tag.<p>Is it just another QR code creator? Sure, you could say that. Is it just another URL shortener? Sure, you could say that too.<p>We love how QR codes provide a way to get from the real world to digital content, but studies show using QR codes is a mixed bag. Some people never bother learning how to scan them, possibly because it can be technologically intimidating and unfamiliar. To address this,That is why TerseTag offers short, memorable tags that people can quickly write down and lookup later, tapping into a simple and familiar act that we all have done by writing down someone’s phone number or email address.<p>Please check it out and let us know what you think, thanks!
