I've got a couple bluetooth plugs around my house that were given to me. I plug my lamps into them, so I can crawl into bed to read and then turn off the lights without getting up. One of the only cool things IoT has given us, I think.
The clapper could already do that.
-- My mom, smugly watching me fumble with an app on my phone as I try to show her how cool technology is.
And you get to clap
Yeah, during the winter when I don't need the swamp cooler, that plug goes on my bedroom lamp. I can sort of wrap my head around why people with a large house would want all lights and shit app-controllable, but that's really as far as it goes. No, I do not want my refrigerator to have WiFi and a fucking app.
