Yup, we'll all have barcode tattoos in the next year.

I don't like the idea of the rfid tag in my licence and that's why it stays in the aluminum sleeve. Fuck all that shit no one needs to track where I go.
 
that might be the dumbest thing i have ever seen

You walk onto a mcdonalds mat and it sends a message to facebook/twitter saying "Johny's eating a Whopper with no cheese!"

who wants to register their shoe to say where you are...?
 
as someone who really didnt understand twitter and hated it upt o about a week ago....i made a name and must say its really a awsome website. People are hilarious and following people is pretty cool. Dont hate till you try it such a cool website.
 
what an idiottttt! McDonalds doesn't serve whoppers, thats BK duuuude! someeoneee needs to eat fast food more, who? you do my friend.
 
some of the ideas were good although i think the project is generally too intrusive. probably some privacy regulations surrounding these chips.

cool idea tho
 
I did a research paper on RFID last term, there is some pretty fucked up and cool shit that can be done with this technology. I don't like this application personally.
 
In all honesty I think this is just a really poorly thought out product/business plan, IF they are serious. There's just no way WESC has anywhere near enough market presence to pull of such feats outlined in their video - it is impossible, 'nuff said.

On the other hand, if they intend it as a marketing program it's not bad. The point is that the point of this "product" is neither innovation or creativity as they claim in the video, but rather a ploy to spread the WESC name on the web through exactly this kind of attention.

As a final note, the comparison they make with Nike+ is just atrocious. Another reason to believe this is a joke/marketing (not a bad marketing ploy might I add), but otherwise I would just attribute this to stoned skaters that just happen to be running a business.
 
if all the crazy New World Order RFID conspiracy shit is true and this is the beginning, I am gonna be really pissed.
 
Sounds like a pretty useful thing if instead of putting it in a damn shoe, they put it in a phone.

Wait.
 
a QR code on your wrist could be useful. - if youre in an accident the paramedics can scan it to find out your allergies, contacts etc.

- easy payments straight from your bank account, accessed only by you since you have the tatoo.

- tickets to concerts/games can be stored online, all the venue needs it to scan your wrist.

and this way youre not tracked, its completely up to you what you want to put on it

 
This. The specific uses they outlined in the video are kind of meh, but at least this will serve as a platform for way cooler/better innovations in the future
 
Cool idea but will not catch on for awhile. Also this doesn't really have anything to do with barcode tattoos other than they are the same basic idea...
 
i fucking hate shit like this

the only reason people care what other people are doing is because they hope that by caring other people start to care what they're doing
