Headline: Modern living… in the future

Nutshell: You will have the ability to control your home, from anywhere in the world.

Vision:

I see personalized home pages that allow you to control your home, away from home. From adjusting the thermostat, to turning on and off lights, to feeding the household pets. The web site also allows you to turn on and off TVs, radios, etc, to make it seem as though you are home, when you’re a world away.
