On December 18, Dutch social media expert Polle de Maagt claimed in a guest post on this blog that mobile barcode concept ShotCode
was soon-to-be history.
The future is in GPS/bluetooth/triangulated services. And although I really
really liked ShotCode: exit ShotCode
Yet, when I visited his blog (Dutch) today, I noticed this really
interesting concept that could save ShotCode from its predicted death:
What’s the story here? Multimedia designer Phil Lu came up with the idea, and
presented it as a mock-up on Geneco. This ordering system makes sure you won’t have to stand
in the ordering line, which is always there. It will make the life of many
personal assistants way easier. And here comes the ShotCode-saving element: Lu
suggests a ’swipe transaction system using semacode technology’ as a payment
method. That’s where the cool-looking ShotCode comes in:
Just imagine that Apple and Starbucks are digging the idea and will start to
implement it. They’re both cool brands, so it’s not really out-there. Wouldn’t
that make ShotCode übercool as well?
