How the heck do QR codes work (perthirtysix.com)

It's a nice presentation, but the QR-code builder doesn't understand Kanji or Alphanumeric (5.5 bit / symbol) encoding.

It does, however, look very, very nice. I'm not complaining too much, just suggesting the authors encode alphanumeric data with the lower bit per symbol encoding when appropriate.
