where can I find features list for qr codes ? I mean I can encode everything which can be represented by a string.
Example what I'm looking for:
SMS - "sms:text"
Email - "mailtio:text"
Text - "Text"

QR Codes are for encoding data, do you want to know what a specific device supports? – Elliott Frisch Nov 25 '13 at 15:11

Most devices support MeCard, Hyperlinks, Phone Numbers, Email Addresses, vCards, some support Wifi Settings, and text display. Look at this question for how to use a ZXing C# API.
A MeCard is a semicolon and colon delimited set of fields and might look like this
MECARD:N:Elliott Frisch;URL:frischcode.com;
A hyperlink starts with a protocol followed by a colon, not every device supports every protocol. (e.g. http: or ftp: or sms: or mailto").

Go read this [MeCard link](http://theqrplace.wordpress.com/2011/05/02/qr-code-tech-info-mecard-format/) - there's a few more examples there. – Elliott Frisch Nov 25 '13 at 16:42

And here's a [vCard Class Library](http://www.thoughtproject.com/Libraries/vCard/index.htm). – Elliott Frisch Nov 25 '13 at 16:43
