CASE4FUN NFC TAGS
 I'm adventurous. You give me the name so something or something or someone and I'm game to finding out what or who or how.  So it is with me and the latest "thing" out there. When I saw NFC codes, I had no  idea what I was about to discover, I just said, "ooooo look at all the pretty colors".
NFC cards are more than pretty colors. NFC stands for Near Field Communication device, or card, or tag. They can contain information such as what would be on a business card,  directions to your business, the web address, coupons, discounts, etc. The NFC card can be read by devices that have a NFC reader/writer in them, like a smart phone or tablet. Your phone or tablet has to have the capability to handle NFC. Then you download an app such as NFC Launcher which will direct you on what you want to put on the tag. When the tag is made, it can be held up to your phone or another's phone to transfer information, like your business website or address and it is safely in a phone rather than on a card that someone can easily loose or throw away. It is akin to two smart phones being held up to each other to transfer information. 


I tried it on my android tablet, but an error message let me know my tablet was not set up for this action. I  was downloading NFC Launcher App and afterward let me know it could not be used. 

Now the people from Case4Fun who so generously sent me these cards are freaking out, because,  I can't show you exactly what they do.  But do not despair, my son, Gabriel will use these smart tags with his phone. Sorry, I thought it would work. :( 

You can buy empty NFC card, program them, write on them and pass them to whomever wants the information or to whom you want the information to go. They are sold on Ebay and many tech stores.

The sellers, Case4Fun say:
