I can see it now: "This just in: FDA orders recall of tainted canned X....If you want to know if the can in your cupboard is one of those subject to the recall, scan the 2D barcode...."

Ditto le-bon - excellent post - a clear indication that industry has been and continues getting prepared for a monumental transition in the way the world does business. The possibilities and applications are truly mind boggling.

Just the other day, I found a bar code on our company's invoices. It looked like a datamatrix code, but it was slightly smaller than 1cm square in size. (very small)

I made inquiries and was advised that the code is utilized by the agency that manages our invoices, and the codes are utilized by their automated process to identify which invoices should include which inserts, notice, flyers, etc.

Granted, I presumed this to be a direct method, but that is also when I realized, like the 'world wide web', the possibilities of connectivity are only limited by imagination.

Truly mind boggling (to me)

Regards,
Jeff

BC,I no longer worry about what is going to happen here ,it has already started and no stopping it now. More info about QR and 2D codes are bringing this one step closer to being viral. It starting to look like some sort of global initiative will be happening and we are going to be positioned right in the core of the biggest cultural shift of the mobile screen. I expect to see QR codes popping up in magazines and papers for the holiday season. As I have said before, this will be bigger than we can even imagine. Here is another tidbit of info from today. http://searchengineland.com/what-is-a-qr-code-and-why-do-you-need-one-27588
