QR Codes are not what you call a fad or hip
Lesson 2:

    College students are not an ideal target

Certainly not in Belgium because mobile data is
          horribly expensive for most

How to interpret your stats
Scanners are more likely to be your
   fans, they spent a relatively
   considerable effort to scan
Webmetric analogy

Scans = inverse bounce-rate
Dont just count scans, they are
    nothing more than hits

HITS = how idiots track success
Final Advice
Be nice to the scanner:
- Give at least something practical
- Make it a Fun User Experience
- Give incentives (coupon, secret, sweepstakes, )
Simple Incentive Illustrated, scan for boobs
