Typing in the url of websites on your mobile phone using a stylus, or using thumbs and a keypad is one of life’s most frustrating tasks.
However Microsoft have come up with ‘Tags’ which are colourful images containing data that your phone can decode to take you straight to a particular mobile website. They work in the same way as barcodes on goods in a supermarket.
You will need to download a tiny file which automatically installs on your mobile phone. Open it and your camera is activated, then point it at the Tag and you will be taken immediately to the mobile site it’s linked to.
Try it. First go to Microsoft’s mobile Tag website direct from your phone and download the application, then use your phone on the tag in this post. It should take you directly to the mobile Find a Toilet site - brilliant!
