Show HN: QRUnity, One QR Code for All App Stores

We needed a single QR code for our advertising materials. Rather than having two or three QR codes for all stores, we developed QRUnity to have a single one. Links can be updated dynamically, so any link changes will not affect your already deployed QR codes. It's totally free. Hope you enjoy

First of all, really cool idea.

But if this goes on any "permanent" material (eg. printed on posters and such), it's nasty that the link would be on a domain controlled by someone else. Someone whose business model could change at any time, who could shut down and the links wouldn't work, or worse, who could start redirecting to malware.

My advice: Decentralize this by offering it not just as a service, but by licensing it to companies that want this on their own servers. I suspect some would pay a decent price for this.

Either that, or open source it. :)

Those are really valid concerns, we'll surely take it into consideration. We will pack it for download soon. First lets see if we're the only ones who hate multiple QR codes =)
