I was made aware of an iPhone application which lists businesses which are posted "No Weapons," as well as their nearby non-posted competition. The application is called "Posted! - Carry List Anti-Gun Locations" and sells for $0.99.
If you allow the application to access your current location, you will see all of the posted businesses within a designated radius, say 20 miles. There is a mechanism whereby you can reconfirm the listing, add a new one, or add a non-listed competitor.
In Illinois, there was a concerted push by the Lt. Governor, Sheila Simons, and Senate President Cullerton to promote posting by businesses. In Illinois, it has the force of law and significant penalties up to loss of your CCL. Numerous threads have begun on various Forums (Fora), but they are cumbersome and poorly policed. Considering the efforts of our anti-gun state administration, I was surprised to see relatively few posted businesses, with plenty of alternatives.
I suspect that there are Android and other applications of similar ilk. This is the only App for iOS for this purpose.
