Very  interesting concept! I've read a lot about this scan stuff, mainly with the iPhone though. Neat to see it coming to Android too.

Weather Channel Looks for Customers to 'Scan' App
Feb 3, 2010
-By Mike Shields

The Weather Channel is looking to entice its viewers to start waving their cell phones at their TVs.

The network has launched an innovative new way to distribute its popular application built for Google’s burgeoning Android mobile plaform. Viewers who own an Android-powered mobile device can now instantly download the new app by scanning a barcode that will appear periodically on their TV screens.

Weather will feature the barcode at the 20-minute mark of the shows Day Planner, PM Edition and WeatherCenter. Weather junkies can also retrive the app on the Web by scanning a similar bar code on Weather.com and on several other sites.

Hmm.  It's a start.  Looks like some good technology that could have some really neat uses when fully implemented:

 - Go to a more enhanced story on webpage
 - connect with the story/newscast (via @reply, Facebook, comment)
 - interactivity with games (scan to play a Wheel puzzle/Price is Right game/Family Feud survey)
 - Fantasy scores/stats
 - Directors cut of recorded program

I have a feeling the scanning feature also helps to keep more people watching and boost ratings during those slots.

You'll spot them on the NWS site way before they arrive on the TWC maps, but they ought to be showing up pretty soon if they haven't already.

Paul Goodloe is en route to the snow tonight, so Adam Berg will fill in for him tonight on WCWC.
