Ever heard of Tag? It's an application which allow users to use their phones as a barcode reader, the application can be found for Windows Mobile, Symbian, BlackBerry handsets and for the iPhone, but now it is out for Android and if you didn't know, this little thing is coming straight out from the Microsoft labs. With all the rumblings going on with Microsoft and Google, I'd never expect them to release an app for the Android platform, but then again, I never thought they would do it for the iPhone and look how that turned out.
The application is now available from the Android Market free of charge, just download, fire it up and snap a picture of one those Micro OR Codes and let the application do the rest. But hey, if you want a more decent Barcode Scanner for your Android handset, take my advice and check out Shopsavvy, it is probably the best Barcode Scanner of the lot, it's feature rich and does the job allot faster than Tag, all this is just preference on my part.
