Robert Scoble has an interesting point of view about Christian Lindholm joining Yahoo!

In the same aggregator scan I found this bit of news on Adverblog about smartphones scanning barcodes with their builtin camera.

The day when we will be able to point a product in any shop and have instant feedback on a cellphone, maybe to find out that the same product can be found cheaper two blocks away, is not that far away.

Such an application, able to join mapping, store searching and opinions while on the go (I'm linking google services simply beacuse I don't have the Yahoo equivalents at hand) , would be the final step to overthrow marketing as we know it.

It's going to be fun.
