Skype home automation

By My status Jaanus on November 12, 2006 in Skype around the world.

Some hackers at SharpLogic have written this guide and software to remotely control your house temperature, light, computers and other things over Skype. Only for hackers, as you need to be able to build some of your own hardware using the given instructions, but sounds like fun if you can do that.

Gees, do you at least know what "hacker" stands for ? Hint: maybe you should've used the word "techie" ?

thanks, yes, I know what it stands for. hackers are people who like to mess around with things and put them together in funny ways, and this is exactly what this is about. so yes, I guess you could also call it "techie" if you wanted to. and a fancy web2.0 word for the same thing is "mashup", but since I dont buy that whole web2.0 thing, you won't see me using it. :)
