Me and other people

Me:
I was recently introduced to the world of QR codes thanks to my new Android phone. They’re 2D barcodes that can be used for more than just identifying products — they can contain URL, phone numbers, contact information and lots more. I can scan a QR code (on the web, on paper, on the TV) with my phone and it’ll offer to add a contact to my phone, open a URL in the browser, let me call a number or add an event to my calendar depending on what’s in the code. The QR code on the left is my contact card, the one on the right is a colored version that also works. Scan either one using an appropriate application on your phone and it’ll offer to add me as a contact with my name, email, url and phone number. Much easier than typing it and offers nicer aesthetics.
Others:
Turns out I’m not the only anomalous on the net, there’s also http://an.omalo.us/ and since he’s my lexical neighbor (his words), I’m giving him some PageRank props here.
