"Interesting, and fits in well with Skylar Tibbits recent TED talk about taking this to the next step where the materials can changed over time - pipes that expand or contract depending on the need, or even undulate to move liquids without a traditional pump: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v..."

"I recently bought just the switch and was impressed with how simple it was to get up and running. It disappears once in a while from the network, but other than that it has worked as expected. The best part is If-This Then-That (IFTT) integration, enabling you to set up rules like 'turn the light on my desk on when there is a new SmarterPlanet blog post' or when my daughter posts an Instagram photo, etc... The best/worst part? They finally released an Android version of the App - it is Beta only now, but they are getting there."

"I've geo-tagged a few of these photos in the past, but didn't realize until now that they were all part of a set. I've added them to http://wholemap.com/historic/t... along with other historic photos from the same area. Thanks!"

"What a great idea. Hopefully their tests will help improve the product and get it out into the hands of people who will benefit from it.Looks like a couple of weak links in the product - how will people repair / replace the line? And we've all been reminded again and again not to leave the chords for retractable blinds where children can reach them, I wonder how much of a strangulation threat this will be."
