QR codes need quick response from me

Often when I ask Dickson to comment on the possibilities of QR codes as a mobile technology that could define the next big thing he kills that vibe. "It's not a technology for the masses", he says. My particular excitement with QR codes is simply mobile. Still nobody [rather I don't know of anyone who] has done something worth talking about everywhere and that is possibly why dickson thinks it's not a technology for the masses. I also agree up to the part where not all people know about qr codes, not all people have smartphones, not all people download apps but my question, is that the only way we use technology?
NO.  I'm not one to be quoted on what or how innovation should be done but I think if it solves a problem then it's innovation at the minimum. Innovation in these case needs use of more than one technology even when putting emphasis on one. For instance Dickson noticed newspapers nowadays have qr codes that they ask you to scan with your phone, follow the link and comment on a story.KAPS is my second example. They now use QR codes to store parking information for their clients. Do these clients need to have
smartphones. NO. do they need to know what play store is or on what street it is on? NO. They don't, they don't even need to know what or who a QR is. Theirs is just to scan it at the exit points and proceed with their business. They're using the technology anyhow.
I have been trying to figure out some more uses of the QR but are still skeptical about it's acceptance hence its relevance in todays society. That however doesn't mean all is lost. I've got more hints as to it's viability and sense in recent days.  This is a title to a post on Techweez.

  I got it on one of the mail subscriptions. Interesting. huh?
More of that is on my mail when someone sends me text. They want a customized plugin that creates QR codes.
Enough of searching for clues and on to work. serious work
catch me sometime in march when a good part of what I'm thinking of building is ready.
Cheers

It's 2013. All hopes refreshed

It's a new year. Another year to be thankful to Almighty for the good and the bad times we've been though. All those defined our being here today.(Where? Everywhere, anywhere we can read this from.) It means a lot to most of us who live on hope. It's our 50th year as a country(KE). Means a lot to us especially since it's in the same year when we'll hopefully get to choose and decide the direction our country takes from today. A year we send off our 3rd president since independence and 2 years after we promulgated our new constitution. Away from politics, It's also the year when Teens who were born in '95 become legal and are eligible to going to Hague, let alone enter a mututho spot. A year when we'll have 0.7 million more people getting born in Kenya. I'll also be clocking 3 years experience in web development. [though experience  in time not necessarily what matters but experience in skill]. My startup @patasq will also be turning 2 (in sept) and I'll be clearing 3rd year later in March.
We all have high hopes for the new year and should take this first week to reflect on where we are headed too.
Have a blessed and prosperous '13 all.
