Mobile Tagging
Tuesday, January 27th, 2009JK on the RUN posted a great new free program from Microsoft called Microsoft Tag. Here’s a video he posted.
What is it?
Instant information and entertainment.
Microsoft Tag creates unlimited possibilities for making interactive communications an instant, entertaining part of life. They tranform physical media (print advertising, billboards,product packages, information signs, in-store merchandising, or even video images)—into live links for accessing information and entertainment online.
With the Microsoft Tag application, just aim your camera phone at a Tag and instantly access mobile content, videos, music, contact information, maps, social networks, promotions, and more. Nothing to type, no browsers to launch!
What if you could use the camera in your phone as an entry system for long URLs, detailed contact information and more? Wonder no more because you can do just that with Microsoft Tag. It’s a free application in beta for Windows Mobile, J2ME, Symbian S60, BlackBerry and iPhone.
Too bad I have Symbian S80. Although, for those of you out of the stone ages, this looks to be a great little program. If you have downloaded it or use it, let us know how it works fo ryou.
