But you\u2019d be hard pressed to find anyone \u2013 in Britain or anywhere else \u2013 who actually wants to waste time standing around and waiting, and the smartphone is ideally suited for eliminating this; even if it results in Brits having to find another hobby.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s simple to determine where lines aren\u2019t necessary. Organisations just need to ask if a task actually requires a person to be present, or if it can be done using a phone at their convenience. If it can, it should.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"mce-hs-more\" style=\"height: 20px !important;\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These solutions will allow people to simply show up and have the best experience possible without any extra steps. No standing in line, no dealing with kiosks or ticket counters, no arriving only to find the show is sold out, restaurant is full or train schedule has changed. They show up in person only to have the experience they desire, and not a moment before.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Which brings us to the recently announced <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fortune.com\/2016\/12\/05\/amazon-go-store\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amazon Go grocery store<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which will lack one standard feature of supermarkets: a checkout lane.\u00a0Instead, customers scan their smartphones on the way in and an app charges their purchases to their Amazon account on their way out. As an aside, the tagline for this service is \u201cJust Walk Out,\u201d which is flatteringly similar to our own JustRide \u2013 especially apt as both use similar<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.masabi.com\/blog\/mobile-ticketing-why-barcode\" target=\"_blank\"> underlying mobile barcode technology<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and follow similar philosophies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is connected consumer Nirvana.

Whether you\u2019re grabbing dinner or catching a train, being able to skip the line means taking back that lost time and using it for something you actually want to do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Getting rid of lines is an important reason for virtualizing a service and launching an app, because it is based on the needs and expectations of the end user: The grocery shopper, the traveler, the businessperson, the citizen. And in the smart city, those expectations will always be based on the ability to do what they need to, when they need to do it, without any extra steps.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When we as innovators focus on eliminating those steps \u2013 especially the steps that advance people towards the front of an unnecessary line \u2013 we\u2019re ensuring the success of the solutions we produce.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For more principles to help guide successful Smart City solutions please download our new ebook: <a href=\"https:\/\/info.masabi.com\/smart-city-principles-to-prepare-for-2050-a-guide-to-assessing-smart-city-solutions\" target=\"_blank\">Smart City Principles to Prepare for 2050: A Guide to Assessing Smart City Solutions<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u2019s an old joke that queueing is the British national pastime.
