Clearly my Thursdays are more pedantic than Phil's, see Wednesday's letters. A dimension is something that allows variation, so a line is one-dimensional, a flat space is two-dimensional, add depth and you get 3D. A normal barcode is read from left to right (or right to left) and has no meaning when read up-down so is 1D. The new barcodes have to be read both left-right and up-down (see all those little dots...) so really are 2D.

Re: Phil and 2D barcaodes... The thing about pendantry is that it helps to be right. Yes, regular barcodes exist in two dimensions, but they are read in one. Bye!
