App Lets You Pin Virtual Post-It Notes to a Real Wall [VIDEO]

Post-It notes long ago made the transition from the real world to your computer screen, but thanks to a new app, they're going virtual as well.

3M worked with augmented reality developer Metaio on the new app, which lets you pin a virtual Post-It to a real wall. As the video above shows, you can use an iPad to take a picture of yourself with a speech bubble outlining your message. Then, you can put that message on a wall with others. However, you can only see the messages with the app. To set up the app, you need a marker, which you can print out and post to a wall to begin accepting virtual Post-Its.
