Mobile RSS via Kaywa

As many of you know, MMM likes to explore different aspects of integrating mobile technology as it could pertain to ministry. One of those things investigated a great deal is QR codes. I believe that they can be quite effective in merging the print and mobile tech world, and at the same time, offer something simple enough that implementing and teaching people how to use them is not burdensome.

The folks at Kaywa have this excellent service called Feed2Mobile in which you can take an RSS feed and have it embedded into a QR code that one can point their mobile phone towards and then automatically subscribe to your RSS feed.

This is something that will have a better effect (in both use and explanation) when integrating mobile devices with paper (think MMM's Issue 4). But for right now, we've added this section to the center column so that those of you who are new to MMM, and want to subscribe, and have a QR code reader, can just point your phone/smartphone's camera at the screen, and then you have MMM in RSS right there.
