Control home electronics with Belkin WeMo

Turn your home into a smart home with Belkin’s latest WeMo innovation: the WeMo Insight Switch ($59.99).  This Wi-Fi enabled compact plug lets you control your home electronics' energy use right from your Android or iOS device. Using the free WeMo app, you can receive notifications on your mobile gadget every time a connected electronic device is turned on and off or you can switch the plugged device on or off yourself.

It lets you put your electronics on a schedule and receive notifications of the device’s usage, energy consumption, and costs specific to the device. The WeMo Insight Switch even works with online service IFTTT to trigger other 'net-based services such as email and social media.
