With the LookTel app, blind people in the US will be able to correctly identify the value of their dollars. via NY Times Bits Blog Blog...

My predictions for the iPhone 5 – I think it will definitely be bigger, have a better camera and better resolution. I also think it will have NFC technology that will allow you to make payments via your phone. What are your predictions for the...

Mobile payments have arrived at Starbucks

Posted by on Jan 19, 2011 in Mobile, Social Media, Tech & Gadgets | 5 comments

Early this month, I blogged about how your mobile phone will soon replace credit cards and it looks like that time has arrived. Starbucks announced this week that their customers will now be able to pay for coffee with their cellphones instead of pulling out cash or a credit card. How does it work? All you need is a BlackBerry or an iPhone (sorry Android users) and download the free Starbucks Card app. To pay for your coffee, simply hold your phone in front of the scanner at Starbucks cash registers. The money is subtracted from your Starbucks account, which you can load with credit cards...
