You might have seen this picture on different websites. It’s a barcode. Just like with a magazine, this barcode is a unique identifier to the world. While it looks pretty, it’s function is simple: Get you to Geekazine.com

Now if your already on Geekazine.com, why would you worry about this? Well this isn’t as much for your computer, as it is for your mobile phone. Let’s say you are on your Notebook and would like to get the site on your mobile phone. Instead of typing in the URL, just point the camera to this symbol and let it do the work. The best part is each page will have it’s own symbol. If you are looking at the Day in Tech History content, for example, then your mobile phone will go directly to the page in question.

To use this interesting feature, all you have to do is download a program that will read the bar code. Here are a few programs you can look into:

1. Active Print
2. BeeTagg
3. Google
4. i-nigma
5. Kaywa
6. Nokia
7. QuickMark
8. UpCode

I am hoping this will help enhance your experience to Geekazine. If there is anything you want me to add on the site, just let me know in a comment below. Of course, you can always call 608-205-4378 or email geekazine@gmail.com for more information.

What is funny about having 2 teams on the floor is that content could be duplicated. While we kept a good lid on that happening, we still got a few duplicate interviews. But the best part about that is we also got two perspectives on the same products.

Take this case - PureEnergy is a company that produces solutions for quick charging. While at Digital Experience, I talked to George about their mat charging systems. Andy McCaskey then talked to George at CES. So what do you do?

I say – run them both. Therefore, in Part I, Jeffrey Powers talks to Pure Energy about their line of power chargers for all types of devices. Whether it be your iPhone, iPod, MP3 player, Kindle, netbook, notebook or even a few rechargable batteries – You have a one – stop shop to connect and charge.

I tried overclocking years ago. It was geeky to do, but in the end I am not a hard core gamer that needs that extra couple megahertz. Therefore I let the processor work in it’s normal capacity.

But Intel is really helping out – not because they want you to – but they know that you will do it anyway, so they will help out so the overclocking is safer.

GigaOM’s OM Malik talked with Michael Dell about the company a couple weeks back. Michael made some statements whose predictions at times were no easier than determining Nostradamus’ writings. Yet other websites interpreted it in saying that Dell is hinting on making a phone to rival iPhone. While it’s not an impossibility, will Dell get into the market or are they playing on the media to ilicit a response from the public?
