Tags are stickers (or key fobs) with passive RFID chips in them which can be programmed and read by NFC-enabled phones.
Using phone-based NFC software, I can set up a list of tasks and then assign them (write them) to a tag. Then, whenever my phone passes near the tag the phone carries out the list of commands - such as wireless off, bluetooth on etc. I put the tags in certain locations, like in my car, my hallway and my office. The tags are a little pricey at the moment, but will fall in price as they become more ubiquitous. You can buy them all over the place - I got mine from Amazon. HERE is a listing.
