Google has launched a new effort to send window decals to over 100,000 local businesses in the U.S. that have been the most sought out and researched on Google.com
and Google Maps called "Favorite Places on Google". Now launched in over 9,000 towns and cities, in all 50 states. This new program offers a window decal that
has a unique bar code, known as a QR code that you can scan with any of hundreds of mobile devices — including iPhone, Android-powered phones, BlackBerry and more
— to take you directly to that business's Place Page on a mobile phone to find reviews, get a coupon if the business is offering one or star a business as a place
you want to remember for the future. Soon, you'll be able to leave a review on the mobile page as well, just like on your desktop.
