Over the weekend I was sitting in a cafe with a friend of mine who works at a supermarket. He mentioned that he’d heard of a program on the iPhone which could read barcodes, RedLaser. I grabbed a copy, and we played around for a moment scanning the shopping we’d just bought.
Then sitting at home this morning, my eyes wandered to my DVD collection, and cogs began to whirr. A few moments later and I started the task of scanning each DVD, with the aim of e-mailing the list of results to myself, thus cataloguing my collection. Next I start on the CDs and books. So yeah, I had a nerdgasm, but only a little one.
