More "technology for technology's sake" IMHO. The last thing on earth I want is my house connected to the Internet. I do have a couple of smart thermostats that I've played around with connected to the main boiler aquastat that are technically wifi capable, but I've used that system maybe once in the last two years (I usually run wood and pellet stoves - I utterly hate burning oil, even at $1.50 a gallon). Absolutely, positively no good whatsoever can come from Big Data (especially Google, who now owns Nest) having access to or control of - wholly or partially - my home. No way. Just my $0.02.
