You mentioned a certain aesthetic to QR Codes, and I agree. I even made <a href="http://david.dlma.com/habari/prettiest-little-qr-code-ever" rel="nofollow">a vain attempt at creating a more aesthetically pleasing QR Code</a> without simply taking advantage of the error correction feature.

Then my curiosity makes me dig in all the information about this crazy and beauty code. I think the mankind are not usualy happy with all things we made for publicity or share a history or anithing like that. i think this QR code is a big thing to handle and we have to use, share and make this the new genaration. The who would be glad about this. Lets rocks genaration Y. best regards Felipe Warren Man, i never seen anyting like that before. i was searching for the internet some logotypes and then boom crash into Qr codes. my eyes dont believe in that.

The standards are open and available, so it must be possible to read QR Codes without the aid of technology, though the simple technology of some paper and a writing implement might be very useful! Having no technology available might add to the interest, as there’s a puzzle to be solved before you can find the next step. Maybe a version of these could be made, like a cross between a QR Code and a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captcha" rel="nofollow">CAPTCHA</a> so they can only be read by humans, with the aid of our great pattern recognition systems?
