For anyone looking to expand on the use of the build in NFC App, I've written an application that uses NFC tags to automate tasks (both a UI to build and write the tags as well as the read/execute portion).
It is freely available over at XDA (ad-free) as well as a paid version in the Market (if you wish to support the development - all support is appreciated).
[APP] NFC Task Launcher - 1.1 Released - xda-developers
Launch features are as follows:
Launch Features:
- Enable/Disable/Toggle Wifi
- Enable/Disable/Toggle Bluetooth
- Connect to Known AP
- Configure and Connect to new AP

- Launching of Tasker Tasks (if Tasker is installed and configured)
A quick video of the app in use (before tasker support was added)

We're working hard to make the NFC functionality of the Nexus S more useful for people (especially those of us US based) and hope this is helpful.
