I’ve just discovered the little application called Microsoft Tag. Microsoft tags are 2D barcodes using colors that contains something mostly an URL. The Pocket PC client is free and works really great. Just need to center the picture in front of my camera and it decodes immediately, even the picture is not centered or perpendicular to the phone ! Pretty amazing
But why only put them in stores or on a paper ? Is the phone not be able to capture a computer screen picture ? And what would you say if you are able to download an application just by using your camera phone ?
I think it is a really interesting and useful experience. I’ve put a Microsoft Tag for the ProjectXT CAB file. (BTW it is still the old version, the new is coming soon
)
