All of the power of automated symbology in the palm of one's hand ... and now even NASDAQ is on board!
Symbology is a term used in automatic identification (barcodes, biometrics, RFID, and etc.) to describe a process nature of communication and recognition. This process nature of communication and recognition is also used in every day mobile life and aids in the immediacy of communicative understanding. Symblogogy attempts to share stories of this communicative understanding, found on all levels, that may enhance “needs-satisfaction” commerce in everyday life.
