Is the QR code soon to be a thing of the past?
There is also a provision for user-created content, that is likely to create a wild and wooly augmented world and perhaps a new generation of video graffiti artists, if the service takes off.

Wow, print media merges with TV. We're a step closer to the interactive digital paper (like animated giftwrap) depicted in Neal Stephenson's "The Diamond Age, Or A Young Lady's Illustrated Primer" (1996), which attempts to project the world of a hundred years hence.

One doesn't get this from the video, but a browse over to the website reveals it may have features of the eyeglass technology in Gibson's "Virtual Light."
Since most of my students don't even understand about QR Codes, what does this say about the digital divide? Gibson's book suggests that property or real estate continues to be a locus of power, even in the digital age. In "Spook Country," a character speculates that "cyberspace is everting." Educating our students enough to have an intelligent enough conversations about the sociopolitical implications of our technology means we have to understand it as well.
