What's the most funny about QR codes is how high everyone's expectations seem to be of them.
When "fizzbuzz.com" will do, then a QR code is pointless. I think what most people fail to realize is that "fizzbuzz33.tk/AEC330912/m3/video/webpageforthisparticularcode.html" scans just as well without someone having to remember it or keep it straight.
Interestingly enough, the media the QR code is printed on tends to be essential to a useful deployment- many people print them on glossy surfaces, which reflect uneven lighting and make the scans fail.
They've been one of the strong points of my service- accomplishing an easy-to-generate, hard-to-forge, hard-to-anticipate, and hard-to-save-for-later way of distributing information and verifying the ability to obtain it.
