Nest API

Well, hey, look at that: Nest just published their API. Looks like a somewhat limited early roll-out, but I already have a couple ideas of what I want to do with it.


Update:

Oh, wow! Didn't even think of these applications with the clothes dryer:
  • Keep clothes fresh if your laundry cycle ends while you're away
  • Save energy with longer, more efficient dryer cycles when you're away
  • Auto-delay laundry cycles during energy rush hours
Presumably an internet-connected dryer could send me a push notification when it's done, as well. That would (hopefully) stop me from leaving the laundry in the dryer for two-or-three days.



Exciting times!
