 A corn maze in Alberta, Canada reaped praises from various media outlets and social media posts as it gets the Guinness World Records nod as the world’s largest fully functional QR code. QR or Quick Response Code is much like a bar code, but mostly used nowadays to point to URLs via scans made with a mobile, mostly seen as tiny squares in TV commercials or in product packaging. But the Kraay Family Farm who made this wonderful feat possible, managed to rake in a QR code which manages to cover an area of 309,570 square feet in a real corn field, which you can scan on your iPhone the next time you fly over Alberta on a plane, or on top of a flying elephant, whichever you find more convenient.
