QR codes have acclimated well into their role as the advertising tool that has come to define mobile marketing. However, few use the codes beyond the purposes of marketing. This lack of diversity fosters the notion that the codes are only good for a single purpose. Like most mobile technologies, the codes are versatile and able to adapt to a number of uses. Recently, QR codes have been appearing in places that few people like to dwell: Graveyards.

Quiring Monuments, a company in Seattle, Washington, that offers custom QR codes for gravesite memorials, has been growing in popularity recently. The company specializes in crafting unforgettable monuments and memorials to represent those that have passed on. Monuments are a static representation of what someone was in life, but the company has begun utilizing QR codes to offer a differing approach to remembering loved ones.

The company has been creating tribute website which are filled with content that encompasses the lives of the recently passed. Each site is attributed with a QR code and each is unique to the person it is meant to represent. Many of these sites contain old videos and pictures and can be updated by family members. Quiring Monuments offers customers the option of protecting these sites with a password for the sake of privacy.

All that is needed to access these virtual monuments is a smart phone equipped with a barcode scanning application.
