The comments by 17 year olds on digg aren't really all that useful.... if you imagine scanning in a picture at the highest resolution possible, the file is gigantic, and that's without any compression.
Using a good compression algorithm, it's highly plausible that this could work, although not sure how useful it really is.

it's a controversial article and that warrants flagging. someone even analyzed how many dots could be reliably printed on a piece of paper; it smells of a complete fake to me.

There's a slashdot thread about this, with maths and reasoning that looks accurate to me - this does seem like garbage.
If I arrange 8 bits into an octagon, they're still 8 bits.

As usual with SlashDot, don't expect as polite a discussion as here ;)
