    Go Bucks.
    I adapted an ink-jet printer to spray square bar codes onto each cigar's cap. It uses food-grade vegetable ink so it is safe. The ink is a bit pricey, but is not very visible except under ultra-violet light. I just scan the code with my phone before clipping a cigar to retrieve info, update the database with the smoke date, and add any notes, pics, etc. (I cut out the UV filter on the phone's LED 'flash.')

    That is SO low-tech.....

    I insert microchips into the head of all my cigars embedded with all the necessary information, where I bought it, how much I paid for it, information downloaded from anywhere and everywhere possible about the cigar. My chip reader then downloads the information to my SuperDuperReallySmart5GiPadPhone and the information is automatically updated while I smoke the cigar.

    So take THAT you geek.
