What to do with the Barcode Scanner app?

Recent N-Series devices have shipped with a pretty weird bardcode scanner in ROM. I always wondered what it does – and can now present a solution!

The tool in question can decode a variety of proprietary bar code formats which can be used to store up to 60 characters of text. For example: a vcard can be encoded, and the resulting code can be printed on the back of a business card to simplify data acquisition.
