Renault RFID Facebook likes

Renault came up with a brilliant way of moving the process of ‘Liking’ on Facebook into the real world this month.
At the AutoRAI Amsterdam Motorshow in the Netherlands, the firm handed out RFID-equipped smartcards on its stand. Visitors could connect them to their Facebook profiles. From there, if a visitor liked the look of one of Renault’s cars, they swiped their card against a reader, automatically marking it as ‘Liked’ on their profile and posting up a link containing more information.
