So what are these little square all about? Wondering if I have I become an abstract painter? Well those of you who know me, know I love innovation and advances in technology.
You may have seen these little boxes with strange patterns in magazines, newspapers and print ads.

This technology is so far over my head. Hope I learn how to do all this in school.
Very cool Karen, thanks for posting. I don't have a smart phone but SO many people do... am sure this will be very helpful.
Missed talking with you yesterday. It was just Kathryn and I.
Next time....
Karen,
After reading your interesting post I discovered this youtube video that explains a little more about them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3lrcOhmp9g
Thanks for keeping us in the techno loop!
Jerry I know you will be learning some very interesting technology!
Nanci, thanks for sharing the youtube video. I think it could lead to some interesting interactive scavenger art adventures especially in a large urban setting!
My Smart Phone is dumb, because it's not hooked to the Internet! I wanted it for its PDA capabilities, but now I can see a good use for going online with it. I'll bookmark the YouTube video for my future reference. Thanks!
