Where To BeginSites for Creating QR Codes

OPlan where to store original content online, if you are not linking to websites. A wiki is a good place.
URL Shortners

bitly https://bitly.com/
TinyURL http://tinyurl.com/
Using shortened urls makes a clearer QR code. The more information in a code, the trickier it may be for certain devices to scan it.
