I just read an article on ‘smart light bulbs‘.  Your lighting can now be controlled over the internet via your home wifi.

You HAVE to be kidding me.. I used to joke that when my toaster had an IP address I’d give up technology, change my name to Abraham Stoltzfus and ask the Amish to take me in.

Yep, I’ll pay $25 bucks a bulb so that I can sit in a meeting with my smartphone and turn the lights in my house on and off.

So, if you feel that you need to have your lighting system connected to the internet for some insane reason, you can buy the bulbs online or at your local store. If you buy one, let me know how it works out. I’ll be out purchasing some lamp oil.
