Try it on the back of Agent 47's head, see what it says :



Probably says 'the next idiot that points an N95 at me is going to get a 9mm hole in their head'

what a wonderful and interesting place, the world of barcoding is. I have made some new friends over at http://www.thinthinthickthinthicknumberthinthick.co.uk and they are so hilarious with their annecdotes...

In the meantime, whilst I was perusing the forums and chatting to my new interweb chatbuddy, eduardo "the reader", I knocked up some of my own

We are (as long as we have our barcode readers who cares about anything else ) so

And here's a special message for you Swisstopher:



Oh but of course you can't read it can you?

Some of us have iPhones so can't read them :P







More to the point, I'd rather not waste my time.

Up until this thread the only codes I'd manged to scan with my N95 were on letters from the DVLA. My Tax renewal had a code with my registration number in it and one my dad received had his license number in it.

I've just put the Kaywa app on my Nokia 6300, works a treat

1st message "Greetings fellow Scoobynetters and barcode geeks ;o)"

2nd message doesn't work , just comes up "No barcode detected", although I can read the URL

We use these codes (Data Matrix) at work to mark parts for traceability before we dispatch them.
Apart from that it looks like a really bad 3d picture that requires LSD to work.
Get a W960i and it can read business cards and automatically add to contacts, far more usefull !! And yes, Im a geek too.

Why are they called barcodes? They should be called blockcodes.
