More 2D barcode examples

The newfangled barcodes I wrote about in Consumed the other day come up in another variation in this interesting NPR piece. The main focus is a firm called Scanbuy.

In San Francisco … hundreds of restaurants and businesses already sport the little black and white boxes outside their doors [even though] most people aren’t currently equipped to scan them.

And the latest Trendwatching roundup includes Dutch brand Wickd: “Wickd combines clothing and 2D barcodes technology to allow wearers of Wickd shirts, longsleeves or jackets to take their favorite websites with them. “

Further diversion may be found at MKTG Tumblr, and the Consumed Facebook page.
