In 1998, when most of my friends were still using paper and envelope to send their mails, I made my first Hotmail email address. For more than 4 months, there are no emails other than junk mails there. Oh yes, plus one email I forced my friend to send me, titled “test” with content “okay, okay, here is an email for you”.
Later in the same year, I learnt HTML and made my first web page. I was so excited to have a simple HTML page with my scanned photo on it, my name with different colors each character, then a big font of “Welcome to My Homepage”.

If you noticed, there is something new in this website today. Yes, I have implemented two dimensional barcodes called QR Code (Quick Response Code) here.
Created by a Japanese company named Denso-Wave in 2004, this special barcode format was designed to be decoded at high speed with great flexibility. It means, QR Code does not need any special scanner to read. It can be read by any simple camera installed in common mobile phones. Yes, mobile phone camera, probably like the one you have.
