[QUOTE="jirit, post: 198529, member: 10406"] This must an April Fool's joke since Europe is so much more advanced that using simple bar and QR codes. I would think sometime in the near future (like next year), all qualified pilgrims will carry micro chip swipe cards, that will not only validate their authority to stay in the various albergues but provide real time tracking via global GPS systems, so love ones can stay connected to you while you away walking the camino. With a simple swipe pilgrims can not only collect sellos at all participating albergues, but earn valuable Facebook points, redeemable on future purchases of qualified goods and services. At the same time you can snap photos and wirelessly transfer these to the swipe card for instance uploading to your Facebook page earning you additional Facebook likes and more valuable points. Furthermore Google will provide integrated real time GPS positioning and data flow for those pilgrims wearing Ray-Ban Google Glass sunglasses (trademarked) designed specifically for the modern pilgrim. Real time weather reports, geo spatial terrain data, including distances to the next town, locals services, etc, combined with entertaining first person accounts of local historical information will be available at the flick of an eye lid.
