The April 21st, 2009 blog entry 'BB & 2D barcodes' looked at the use of 2D barcodes, specifically on the BlackBerry. Couple of things, perhaps of interest:
1. The entry referenced the weird-looking Microsoft Tag... Well, this has been updated, and now one can use b/w, color dots, embed a background image, etc. See 'Custom Tags - Start Now!!' for more examples and guidelines....
2. Some examples of QR codes making their way into the environment:
- An Austrian company is now laser engraving QR codes on jewelery e.g. belt buckles, for those who want to make a fashion statement(?!?)
- Laser Etched QR Codes: Digital Graffiti For Gadgets
- Sci-Fi Writer Wears His Book on His Shirt (actually a url to his book)
- Japanese Gravestones Memorialize the Dead With QR Codes
- Uses for QR codes (business cards, escort service ads, tattoos, posters, etc.)
- Quevedo Uses Dynamic Labels - Adopting QR Codes for Marketing Wine
- Earth Day and QR codes
- QR codes beginning to hit the advertising mainstream?
