Everywhere you look today, you’re hit right between the eyes with an URL. They pop up in TV ads, in ads on the big screen, on billboards, posters, soup cans, cereal boxes, on the sides of buses — just about anywhere. If you see one that’s interesting, and have pen and paper to hand, you may jot it down. But what if you’re walking or driving? How would you capture the URL then? The answer could be the smartphone — it’s ubiquitous, it’s handy, and you’re not likely to leave home without it.
