Recently Smart Communications introduced a service to its customers that allowed the cellphone owner to gain automated connections in a streamlined symbology method they call Decode.


Decode, based on a symbology developed by Nextcode (mCode) is scanned and the customer is taken to a reference website, a bill paying process, or in this case ... a vote for a contestant in a beauty contest!


It is only a matter of time where we in the United States will be able to get away from cumbersome "texting" to photo scanning our vote for ... an American Idol contestant ... really; it may not be that far off.
