			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.informationweek.com/news/mobility/RFID/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=217701971" target="_blank">&#8220;Coke&#8217;s RFID-Based Dispensers Redefine Business Intelligence&#8221; by Mary Hayes Weier</a> (Information Week, 8 June 2009) Don&#8217;t let the geeky title scare you. Put yourself in the shoes of a Coke guest and read between the lines. This a perfect example of the shift in expectations that&#8217;s being driven by the empowerment guest now enjoy as a result of &#8220;technology&#8221;. Offline or online is not important. What is important is the experience. As much we hate to tip our hats to high frutose corn syrup &amp; water, Kudos to Coke for this effort.</p>
<p>Our guess is that eventually Coke will link all the machines so that instead of having to reenter your custom flavour everytime you&#8217;ll be able to enter your own code and the Freestyle machine / network will take care of the rest. There&#8217;s also the possiblity of integrating the machines with a web site (or social network widget) and letting people share their custom flavours. Similar to Abobe&#8217;s Kuler (<a href="http://kuler.adobe.com/" target="_blank">http://kular.adobe.com</a>) but slightly  different.</p>
