Tired of small barcodes that could only be scanned by hovering a few inches away, Blue Fountain Media’s marketing team set out to solve the problem. Liberating our team from the backbreaking work of scanning the official Blue Fountain Media Stickybit from a few inches away, the entire staff can now scan from the comfort of their desks.

What’s a Stickybit? Stickybits Turns the Physical World into Digital Media

Nearly everything that used to be strictly phsyical has gone digital. Music has been converted into MP3s, people are represented by Facebook pages and status updates, places exist in Foursquare and Yelp. But what about “things”?

Well, here’s a solution: Stickybits makes “things”–the physical objects and spaces around us–digital by connecting digital media to physical objects through barcode stickers. Scanning a barcode with the Stickybits apps opens a portal to audio, video, photo, and text messages assigned to that “bit” (aka barcode). The Stickybits iPhone and Android apps let users scan barcodes (including existing ones on retail prodcuts), attach messages, and keep track of the stickybits left by their friends.
