Sem@code is an app for your Internet-enabled Symbian camera phone that reads the web address out of a 2d barcode (like the one pictured) and connects your phone’s web browser to it. I’m not quite sure how practical this is, but does that really matter? It’s a free download.

    If that will read the FedEx barcodes, I can see lots of practical applications for it.

    I probably should have been more clear; I don’t see it being practical for the average camera phone user roaming around. The sem@code website has a grand vision for this kind of thing, and I agree that it could be nice for some specific markets, but for the consumer market this is about as practical as the CueCat.
