Bar Codes
More than 500 restaurants, shops and businesses reviewed by Citysearch are placing printed bar codes in their windows. People who have special software from Scanbuy Inc. loaded on their cell phones can simply take a picture of the code and their phone’s Internet browser will immediately take them to the restaurant’s corresponding Citysearch page.

No one wants to scan shit. In the same way that no one really wants to use a stylus on a mobile device, no one really wants to scan shit. Like, of all the competing location-based technologies, bar codes? FAIL.
