A DoCoMo TV Spot about QR Codes. Funny explanation what a QR Code is, even if a tad chauvinistic.

After our QR Code Generator, there is now also a Datamatrix Generator.



This is the Datamatrix Code of this blog's mobile version which you can read with the Kaywa Reader. Or if you want to use SMS (in Switzerland only), you can send one to 202 with QR 2020400102

Via Heike I just stumbled upon CuteCircuit's Identity Service. There is not that much to read, but it reminds me of some of our ideas we pursue with the Kaywa ID.

Not much to see there yet, but every ID already has it's personal QR Code. So if you already want to check out an ID, scan that code:). In a few more days, I'll talk about some of the things you can do with your ID. Stay tuned.

Single-Serve . Reminds me of our several ID discussions: one ID, different personas. We haven't resolved it yet.

Well, I guess we all wait for phones with integrated A-GPS, so that we can start easy gps moblogging. I am not convinced though that we absolutely need a Javaclient for this.

MMS Blogging works and is easy to install on all MMS-enabled phones, whereas the rollout of Java-clients is always taking more time. If we have other benefits with such a client, it naturally can be worthwhile.
