I figure we should start a thread of all the creative things that you guys are doing with your NFC tags. You should list what you are using them for and what apps you are using to make them work.
A simple bedtime tag...sets volume to 40%, turns on Night Clock app.

I've used NFC Tag Launcher to turn the POS Verizon car dock into something better: Launch Car Home, disable wifi, enable bluetooth, adjust ring, notification, and media volumes, and then to play a clip of Jim Gaffigan screaming "BAAAACOOOON!" to let me know everything has been set. I've still got a handful tags, so I'm looking forward to finding something new with them.

Is there a way to have a tag be a toggle? I'd like my nightstand tag to put my phone into night mode when i tap it at night, and then put it back into day mode when I tap it a second time in the morning.

Very easy to do via the app mentioned before.

Tagstand. Got them in two days too. Any of the tags work. Get them formatted if not on 4.0.3 though.
You have the Google 'Car Home' app working? It won't load from the market for me. Are you using an apk or a different app altogether?
In a german forum i read about someone who out sticked a NFC-tag into his cookbook directly next to the recipe for muffins: The NFC-tag started a timer counting down the oven-time, so he didn't had to watch for the mussins in the oven ^^
Ok guys seriously, almost no one is suggesting what to do with the NFC tags. Please stop asking questions and posting nonsense. If you need to ask questions about NFC tags go look for a thread with the correct info.
Earlier in this thread a guy said his plays a sound when everything is done. I'd like it so after I use the tag my phone makes a noise of reassurance
