If you run a smartphone you can get reading software here (http://www.quickmark.com.tw/download.html), which is fricking awesome.

Plus with a bit of jiggery pokery I found you can produce qr-codes of .vcfs that windows mobile phones automatically recognise and prompt to save to contacts.  If every camera phone sold had QR support, you could get your .vcf printed on a single buisness card or something, which clients just snap and your details are filed away nicely for synchronization with a desktop later.   Possibilities are endless tbh...

Theyre standard visual codes used primarily in manufacturing, especially in places like china etc.  You can often see them on top of memory chips and sometimes processing chips etc, they allow product info to be sent round the factory on the product itself without damaging it (often the image is lasered into the top surface of the product).

my uni project was based on PGP encryption and QR codes
"Private Messages in Public Places" was the title.

Never got to finish it tho due to personal reasons :(

Tbh, i still want to look into it but i dont get the time to research and code because i have a job :(
