When Android phones were still young, I made business cards with QR codes on them, but people didn't know how to use it. At the time, the only way was to intentionally download a QR code reader app. Ain't nobody got time for that. Nowadays stock Android cameras can read QR codes, but business cards have fallen out of fashion.

In 2000, I foretold the emergence of “smart paper”, told my AndersonUCLA classmates (William Raridan, WT Chen) (I was 45 y/o, had >20 years of working with barcodes - IUPC, 1979 Ralphs Grocery had >20 years of synched inventory, wholesalers, floor stocks, etc.. I completed a PharmD [USC], invested my time in pharmaceutical value chain, inventory to pharmacoeconomics, to head of the P&T Committees,..) I had researched “paper knowledge, bar codes, PDF, flew to Japan met w/ CEO of sensor technologies, yet... my knowledge deemed too far ahead. Now, I’m seeing that QR (and other) technology is driving the world!
