I unashamedly love QR Codes. But every so often, I see one which makes me wonder if there should be some sort of licence for creating them :-)
As I was walking around Camden the other day, I spotted this monstrosity.
I figured with a code that dense, it probable contained a URL to a rubbish iPhone app, or perhaps a link stuffed full of tracking parameters.
Still, what the heck, I scanned it.
What's the bloody point in that?
Here's a guide on "How Not To Screw Up With QR Codes" which I presented at TeaCamp earlier this year.

Did scan on my Android CM7.1. Well, it got you to read it, didn't it 🙂
If you go cross-eyed, it's a 3D picture.
Of a mooning arse.
