Google Wallet captures credit card info with smartphone cameras

Bored to type your credit card`s info each time you want to buy something on-line? One of the most boring tasks an online shopper has to face every time he/she wants to use a credit card, is about to change, all courtesy of our old friend, Google.
Google Wallet has just made easier than ever to capture your credit card info with the latest Android update. 
After Google released its own (physical) debit cards, Google Wallet now brings the ability to upload your credit (and 
debit)
 cards to Wallet by simply taking a photo of them with your smartphone`s camera.
Instead of entering manually your card`s info, each time you see a camera icon in the "card number" field of the Wallet mobile app, can, you can just capture both the card number and expiration date with a photograph and be done with it!
Unfortunately, you will still have to pay for what you buy using the photos of your cards with real money though...
