A few months ago at Ploneconf I met Manabu Terada from Japan who had a 2d barcode on his business card.  This was intriguing to me, and he showed me how his Nokia phone could read in his card, and store his contact information for later use.  Since that time I spent a little bit of time figuring out how my own iPhone could do the same thing, but I had been turned off by the poor image quality the iPhone has, with it’s lack of macro mode.  Well, Grifin has solved that problem.  And Nokia has provided us all with an online version of a barcode generator.  To round out the suite, there is free software available for the iPhone.  So, above you see the barcode for my contact information.  Perhaps you could provide your own barcode with some cheaky message?
