Useful links and news stories

The HomeCamp community is continuing to keep up with the most recent developments of interest in sustainability and home hacking.
One good place to start is the “Links of Interest” page on the Google Group. Another good way of keeping up-to-date with what others are spotting is the #homecamp hashtag on Twitter (personally I keep a search column open in TweetDeck to keep an eye on this, too).
Here’s a selection of things I’ve spotted in the past couple of months:
- Dennis Howlett made a great series of videos with James, Chris and Mark Charmer about energy saving strategies, tweeting houses and the HomeCamp concept.
- Benjamin Ellis investigated how to save on standby power on his blog and via YouTube.
- keynote speaker at the first HomeCamp, Andy Stanford-Clark, has been in the press a lot lately, with more about the Twitter capabilities of his house (and the infamous mousetraps) – it has now earned its own page of press links on his site.
- ReadWriteWeb posted about home automation using iobridge and Twitter.
If you have something to share, get in touch with us via Twitter or our Google Group.
