    I was clicking through Kickstarter and saw this, the LIFX light bulb. "LIFX is a WiFi enabled, multi-color, energy efficient LED light bulb that you control with your iPhone or Android."

    Think of the implications for controllers, and reef tech. Crap, everything is going to be wifi enabled soon isn't it?

    Saw this today and I think the video summarizes exactly why I am so nervous about putting in a 1000g system in my basement.

    This past long weekend we packed up our dogs and made the 8 hour car trip from home in Alberta to British Columbia. We went to help out a friend with her cabin build, and timed our visit perfectly to see the salmon run in the Shuswaps on Thanksgiving long weekend.
