Even a year ago you rarely saw mention of them. I know my early files include an article by the Wall Street Journal and this was stated in 2009. "Anyone passing by who wants to know more about a project will be able to scan the QR code with a smartphone and learn about the property owner, the approved scope of work and any complaints or violations related to that project," Mr. Bloomberg said. It was an in-depth look at this new and ...http://blog.2dnext.com/2011/08/23/2d-next-a-beginning-2.aspx#Comments17491d89-a25b-4306-8e5b-1aca3b2a520dSun, 20 Nov 2011 22:09:12 GMThttp://blog.2dnext.com/2011/09/14/early-adopters-of-2d-barcodes.aspx?ref=rss2DNextMovingCool - www.facebook.com/movingcool.com With any kind of new technology especially that which falls into the computer realm, you would expect early adopters to be technology companies. For example, with 2D barcodes it's not surprising at all to see Microsoft not only uses 2D barcodes but to be one of the early providers of that technology with Microsoft TAG. Beyond such obvious examples the next prime candidates would be those with very deep pockets and large advertising budgets.

You see them in Best Buy as you’re searching for that new laptop and they are all over techie magazines. But who would've thought to look for 2-D barcodes in the garden. Well, just check out your local Home Depot's garden center. There among the daisies and daffodils you will also find 2-D barcodes. Home Depot uses this new technology to help us with the very low tech pastime of gardening. Don't know the difference between your impatiens and the snap peas?
