Generate Designer QR Codes on MOJI-Q

QR codes (abbreviated from Quick Response code) are seen every where – on magazines, signs, buses, business cards, and labels on any product about which users might need information. Users with a camera phone equipped with QR reader application can scan the image of the QR code and the QR reader decodes it to display text, contact information, or open the product manufacturer’s web page in the phone's browser.

QR codes are a great way to add hyperlinks, so to say, to physical objects such as the URL of your company’s website to your business card. That way, people with whom you share your card doesn’t have to type the URL into their cellphone’s browser (which is quite a task, given the small size of the keys). Instead, it’s much easier to point one’s camera to the QR code image, scan it and let the software do the job.

QR codes are easy to create – there are plenty of online QR code generators. Even short URL services such as goo.gl and bit.ly automatically generates QR codes of any URL you shorten.

But MOJI-Q is QR code generator that is able to do something no other automated QR code generator can do - embed custom text messages into the QR code.

MOJI-Q is a Japanese service. It’s only after machine translation that I was able to read the text on the various fields on the QR generation page. You define any URL or text you wish to convert into code along with the message you wish to embed – up to four lines long. You can also specify the location on the code where the custom text message is to be inserted. You can choose the color and even apply a rotation.

Save the QR code image to your hard disk and share it with your friends. This would look awesome in any business card.

How to Record CPU and Memory Usage Over Time in Windows?

Whenever the computer is lagging or some application is taking too long to respond, we usually fire up task manager and look under the Performance tab or under Processes to check on processor utilization or the amount of free memory available. The task manager is ideal for real-time analysis of CPU and memory utilization. It even displays a short history of CPU utilization in the form of a graph.

How to Schedule Changes to Your Facebook Page Cover Photo

Facebook’s current layout, the so called Timeline, features a prominent, large cover photo that some people are using in a lot of different creative ways. Timeline is also available for Facebook Pages that people can use to promote their website or business or event. Although you can change the cover photo as often as you like, it’s meant to be static – something which you design and leave it for at least a few weeks or months like a redesigned website. However, there are times when you may want to change the cover photo frequently and periodically to match event dates or some special promotion that you are running or plan to run. So, here is how you can do that.
