There will be lots and lots of people with 2d barcodes. They will all have a unique twist, and they will require special software to read them. Ultimately a standard will have to prevail. The reason the Web works is because you only need one browser to read HTML... right now the 2d solution is going the other way - this will fail... you need one reader that can read them all. Of course then you have a standard and it's tough to make money off a standard.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/><BR/>PeterAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07858074897556111844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9191890.post-1162391896788153542006-11-01T09:38:00.000-05:002006-11-01T09:38:00.000-05:00"Will physical world connection get adopted by peo..."Will physical world connection get adopted by people because they want ads, or because they want to use their camera phone as a tool?"...They'll actually want to do BOTH, regardless of which ONE brought them into the user fold IMO.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
