  • QR Barcodes Getting Colorful

    Despite the date, this is no joke. Based on patented technology from ColorZip Media, those old 2D black & white barcodes are about to make a colorful splash into the Japan market. Evan Owens, director of ColorZip Japan, will present a brief outline of the company’s technology at MobileMonday in Tokyo, 18 April. WWJ is rather keen on this concept and we’ll file a report on Evan’s MoMo product demo as soon as MoMo is over. 

    From their PR blurb:

    A new, cutting-edge code detection technology for 3G and legacy mobile devices. ColorZip’s growing success in Korea has recently spawned efforts to expand business throughout Asia, particularly Japan, with additional initiatives underway in Europe and the United States.
