A Barcode Standard?

Now that I have a proper website again, without php errors (Torin should be happy), I decided to generate a two-dimensional barcode for it that can be read by a mobile device, taking the user automatically to a new site (Cory should be happy). I noticed that this bar code from Kaywa it has weird squares in the corners, something that ScanLife barcodes don’t. It should be interesting to see if there will be a universal standard for these barcodes so that you won’t need different readers for your cell phone.

    I’m just nerd enough to want to use barcodes to play a-life with.

    That Barcode format is a QR Code (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_Code) which I think is huge in Japan.
