Quick Pitch: JumpScan provides a custom “all-in-one” QR code to link

your physical and digital world.  

Genius Idea: QR codes have been all the rage this year for big brands, and now

ordinary consumers and small businesses can get in on the fun, too.

JumpScan lets users create customized QR codes that combine all your contact

information, including social media profiles, for on-the-go sharing.Think of it as

a QR-powered iteration of Flavors.me or About.me especially intended for mobile

phones.  It’s also a lot like a next-gen version of Contxts and similar services,

but it uses your phone’s camera instead of SMS for a smoother experience with

fewer actions between meeting and contacting a person.  As a user, when you

sign up for a JumpScan account, you’ll get to create a mobile landing page

by entering your contact information. You can add your e-mail address, phone

number, Facebook profile, Twitterand Flickr feeds and more.  

Once you generate your own code, anyone with a smart phone can snap a picture

of the image to be automatically redirected to your own JumpScan page.

We can see this going over really well on the business cards of the digerati,

making the rounds at social media meetups and large conferences.  

The startup is also pitching its codes as a great option for SMB advertising.  

Here’s a quick demo video showing how the app works:

Apple is known to come up with remarkable gadgets that have

no match . After iPhone 4 people are now waiting for the next

release by Apple. iPhone 5 is yet to hit the markets and customers

have high expectations from it .The five much wanted features in

this upcoming phone are what we tend to review here. 

The launch of iPhone five has not been announced yet but people

tend to have a number of expectations from it . There are certain

characteristics that people want to see in the new iPhone,

they are as follows :

1. Larger screen:

The iPhone 4 screen may be an appropriate size but with competitors

working on making their screens bigger , it would be best for apple

to increase the size of the screen in  the iPhone 5. Customers would

be able to work on the phone more efficiently.

2. educed dropped calls:

Customers wish that the upcoming iPhone should give them the best

call quality and the issue faced by the previous iPhone in terms of calls

dropping better be eliminated with the use of advanced and better

technology be it inclusion of more antennas .

3. Improved call quality:

The call quality on the iPhone 4 has been questionable in terms of the

fact that not only is it  unclear frequent disturbance has also been

observed. Customers hope that the new iPhone 5 would come equipped

with an additional microphone that diffuses the noise.

4. Xenon flash:

Most phones come loaded with Xenon or LED flash , however iPhone 4

was the first phone by apple that had a flash . This may not be as efficient

as compared to the xenon flash but it has served the purpose.

Now we hope that the new iPhone’s that come into the market come

with xenon flash to improve the picture quality further more.

5. Technology to facilitate multitasking:

Most customers want to be able to multitask on their phone. However

the previous versions of iPhone were not compatible to do so.

According to apple doing so uses too much battery life , but due to

public demand it might be incorporated in the new version of the iPhone.
