All you need is a “smart meter” that allows Google to tap into your energy usage and they’ll tell you where you can save money based on consumption.
I have to give it to Google…they sure do have some smart people that come up with unique ideas. Go read more about PowerMeter over at their .org site.
Next on the invention table? Keyboards for your computer that read your fingerprints so online billing information is no longer needed. You go to a shopping cart and they know who you are already. The project will then turn into small electrical currents that are sent through the keys into the human body where they can read your brain and index your entire life.

When I first started reading this I thought it must be April 1, but of course it isn`t.
Interesting stuff. Who doesn`t want to save money?
Can I use the “nofollow” attirbute so it doesn’t index “all” of my life?
measuring our energy consumption is important as well as choosing the right way of saving it
lol at what matt said.
Google is like the all seeing eye. What next? Will they be able to tell you your vital statistics?
really? they can track our enegry use? interesting.
Electricity bills have made my head spin. The power meter will be a great relief!!!
Well, I’ll have to thank Christine Cadena for following me. I just added her and followed her here. That’s amazing stuff that Google is doing. I just may look into that because we’re using up about 1,800 kwh a month.
haha. elertricity bills always make me angry. No wonder many people have problem with that. Not only google or others big company. Some small people like us will suffer a lots.
