It's a bit arbitrary - 57 years as opposed to 50 years or such.:rolleyes:

In any case, bar codes as we know them for packaged food products only came in during the early to mid 1970s when a system was developed to scan them for stock inventory purposes. By the mid 1980s, barcodes were being used at the checkouts themselves.

Beep - boop!!:D

If you click that barcode, the entire contents of your hard drive are scanned by Google and your computer will explode.

Seriously.

Must swipe that with my Barcode-Battler and see what I get. Fingers crossed for a srsly good powerup!

That's your personal assigned barcode.
Everyone in the planet is being tattoed with a barcode, it's easier than carrying around ID cards.

I'll be honest: I used to think your posts were alright. You always backed them up with a link (may not always be fact now) and seems to have good insight on them, albeit from a conspiracy theroist point of view.

Unless this post is a blatent rip the p1ss on your known boards.ie CT persona, you exhibiting a bit of self-depreciation humour, I will never be able to look at your posts in the same light again.

Crazy.

C'mon you really had to ask? Surely by now you know that Google change their page slightly to celebrate certain events or to recognise different people/inventions etc.

I guess we'll have to speak in barcode language, considering it's a conspiracy:

same with google.com.au - noticed it this morning in work. I actually thought the lousy feckers in work stopped the google pictures that normally appear on the search function - just to make our day feel more dull and that little bit longer... (oi!, no pictures for you)

Thought i'd be the smart arse and put '.ie' as my default today, but alas tis the same...
