[Linux-aus] TED conference connect app

[Matthew Cengia]

I've not read the article in great detail, but
many of us have lcabythebay NFC cards, which are trivially reprogrammed with an URL, GPG key ID,  etc. All it would take is for somebody to write a wiki page that recommends software to reprogram with, and proposes a standard format. Perhaps everyone could program a link to their LCA user page. Keep it simple, put the onus on the individual, put the NFC tag in your conference badge pouch.
