“A QR Code is a matrix code (or two-dimensional bar code) created by Japanese corporation Denso-Wave in 1994. The “QR” is derived from “Quick Response”, as the creator intended the code to allow its contents to be decoded at high speed. QR Codes are common in Japan where they are currently the most popular type of two dimensional codes.” - wikipedia
QR-Codes can be read with any camera phone that has a barcode reader installed. Telstra have started using these codes in their advertising to give users access to free downloads like ringtones and stuff, and all recent Telstra phones have the barcode reader applications pre-installed.
If you don’t have this installed, you can get a similar application for free from BeeTagg.
There are plenty of websites that generate these QR-Codes, which can be used to encode not only text messages, but instructions to tell mobiles to access websites, send an SMS, or make a phone call to a certain number.
This is really really cool stuff, I just stumbled to a page about it, and felt like I should share it with you! Download and install the application to your phone, and test out the online code generators! Talk to other clued-in-about-QR-Code people by printing out your generated messages really big and stick them places!
The American government is putting chemicals in the water supply!
That’s the only explanation this moronic woman can come up with when she saw a rainbow in her garden sprinkler…
Nothing to do with light refraction or reflection, but the government taking away the constitutional rights of its citizens, “to not be guinea pigs for the government’s never ending thirst for energy sources.”
In the Criminal Justice System of Gotham City the people are represented by three separate, yet equally important groups. The Police who investigate crime, the District Attorneys who prosecute the offenders and the Batman.
So! After all that time I was mad excited to get a 3G iPhone, after all the aggravation over promises of cheap unlocked iPhones that turned out to be lies, after all the hype and hysteria surrounding the new iPhone, I finally, finally played with one yesterday, and frankly, it wasn’t all that great.
SMSing on it was incredibly difficult, almost impossible. The keyboard that comes up on the screen is really really small, so unless you have the tiniest fingers in the world, you’re almost certainly going to mash the wrong letters. I think they tried to combat this with some sort of T9-esque predictive text/mistake fixing feature, which would have been great had it have been suggesting the right words…
The menu was pretty annoying to use. The menu on the iPhone I was playing with was really really really cluttered and messy. The “Stocks” button was right at the top of the first page of the menu, yet the button to make a phone call was all the way on page number 3. I’m certain you can reorder the menu, but the fact that the store one was layed out like that was pretty stupid.
Other things that were annoying about the iPhone was the absence of an MMS feature, as well as not being able to capture video, landscape-only video playback, and the price.
There is nothing all that special about the iPhone, the novelty wore off after about 4 minutes, and I’m kind of relieved I didn’t end up getting one.
It was pretty cool, I guess, but certainly not $800 cool.
