Although a bit dreary, I have an update upon my findings of yet another creative use for QR codes. These little codes are so versatile; you can literally put them anywhere, and that’s exactly what Yoav Medan of Israel did when his mother passed away.

Upon her tombstone he included the engraving of a QR code that will allow visitors to link to a tribute website. This idea is brilliant in that it gives any family member or visitor the ability today, next year or even 20 years from now to view this tribute website that’s filled with information and pictures about his mothers life. Something such as this will live on for generations!

The man who made this tombstone has plans to start a business out of it and that he should! I guarantee we will be seeing these more and more, its personal and it keeps the memories alive of those who have passed. The creator of this is on to something that will spread quickly. I appreciate his ability to think outside the box! He took something already created and applied it to a part of life many of us would never consider. Now, the memories of loved ones will truly live on forever…
