Telework (often referred to as telecommuting ) holds new and largely untapped economic opportunities for Northern Ontario by allowing paid workers to work away from their normal place of work, usually from home.   Since teleworkers need to consume electricity during the day to power their home offices and the technology therein, the smart meter initiative amounts to a tax on what is a very green activity.

Telework offers significant benefits to individual employees, their employers, and their communities, yet the Ontario government has been less proactive in enabling and promoting telework than it has been on promoting the smart meter initiative. An initiative being managed and implemented by those same organizations who have a long track record of waste and mismanagement.

Let your voice be heard by contacting the Premier’s Office, Hydro One, and the Minster of Energy.

Automatic On / OFF Water Pump 12VDC Alarm Buzzer 240V

Came across this board on eBay while looking for a water sensor for my sump pump. For those of you who need to automatically fill secondary water reserves or want to automate that annoying laundry sink water pump-look no further.

What do home & home office automation projects have to do with telework?

When you spend the majority of your time at home working in your home office, projects that automate your office and your home can improve your effectiveness by freeing up more time and generally improving the operation of one of the most important parts of telework system, your home and home office.  Follow along as I point out interesting projects I complete and other projects and technologies I find interesting. Have fun!
