My parents are freaks. Adopt me!

image.jpegWell, that's what this bib says! Would it be wrong to send this to my brother who has an 11 month old baby daughter?  or perhaps ! bypass him and send it straight to my niece the for her very first birthday...

The QR code momentum does seem to be gathering and people are starting to cash in. The bib in question comes from the QR- Store sporting  the tagline - "turning ink into bits" (personally I like "turning your bits into bytes".... just don't visualise).

The stuff for sale at the QR-store reminds me of when those hypercolour t-shirts first came out,  but oh how emebarrasing they were when people realised just exactly what got hot, and when....and then in the early 90's people wandered around with text like http://weosldkghslkhl@guspdjgslkj. com and thought they were really cool and trendy cos they had an "URL" on their front, when in fact it was just a pile of gobbledy-gook that made them look like wannabe geeks. That said , the baby bib is rather amuisng... yes it'll date but it is for a baby and its made for dribblling muck on anyway, unlike the rest of the selection at the QR-store which is disturbingly cheesy.

 Other QR sites of the day are:
