Welcome to SparkDog Nation! When you read that Kelly Boos and Dan Calabrese are teaming up – and you may just be hearing about it now – you probably thought to yourself, “There’s an unlikely combination.” (Or conceivably, “Who are Kelly Boos and Dan Calabrese?”) Either way, we are an unlikely combination. And that’s what makes us a good one. Kelly is an expert strategist who knows her clients and understands their strategic needs. Thoroughly professional and detail-oriented, Kelly is often the first to see an opportunity, and takes the initiative to show clients a chance to jump out ahead of the competition. Dan is without equal when it comes to the use of words to craft messages and convey ideas. Complimenting our two co-pilots is a wide array of talent, from which we draw to build customized teams for each project. We’re not an agency. We’re not shy. That’s SparkDog. So let’s go get some.
PHP MSCRM QR Code and 2D Code Generator | Kerem Erkan This page is an online two dimensional code generator which is written in PHP. It can generate QR Code, Data Matrix, Aztec Code and Micro QR Code for the time being. Because QR Code is much more popular than the other code formats, it is separately named in the page title. If you need more information on two dimensional bar code systems, I strongly suggest that you take a look at Roger Smolski‘s comprehensive blog on QR Code and two dimensional bar codes. Using the form on this page, you can create two dimensional code images that trigger various actions on the scanner device. Please be sure to read the Notes and FAQ sections below before requesting help in the comments if you encounter any problems with code generation (Especially for Micro QR Codes or backslash characters you may encounter on some codes!). This page is very popular and because of that, it gets an incredible amount of comment spam. I am getting many questions about scanning the codes created on this generator. Notes:
