Well.. we’ve been pondering for a while now.

What should we name our blog?

What will it be about?

Who will maintain it?

Up until now we’ve pretty much been posting random things about NFC here and there. Nothing really cohesive or consistent. Nothing really passionate. But that’s the thing with blogs. If you don’t know what your blog should be passionate about, the writing doesn’t flow.

We have good news for you – we’ve made a big breakthrough on the battery life of the FloJack.

How you ask?
