I have some QR code artwork hanging on a wall in my house. That artwork made it into a photo that happened to be taken in that room which I shared on Facebook. I was surprised when someone was able to take that photo, zoom in on the off-angle unevenly-lit code behind glass, scan it and post its message as a comment.

One thing that still bugs me about QR code error correction is the lack of support for codes with inverted color schemes. Unless I'm mistaken, this feature should be relatively simple to implement (ie. checking for two patterns) yet most of the applications I know fail at reading an inverted code (ie google goggles).
