This list discussed Cauzin and other interesting 2D barcode
technologies back in November and December 1998, if you want
to look in the archives.  http://www.paperdisk.com/ was also
mentioned.  

I saw something in the NY Times today about software in cellular phones
that recognizes a new circular barcode that encodes a URL
(and given the example, it looked like it used a "tiny URL"
scheme to map a low-density number to a longer URL kept
in a server's database.)
