I was just reading about the Google Power Meter project. Basically it allows you to see your energy consumption using meters on your appliances in near real time. The idea is that if you can measure your power consumption and see how and when you are using the most power then you have the ability to make small changes that can greatly reduce your power consumption.

Just wanted to throw this out on my blog too... Looking for some feedback, thought, etc..

I don't have a lot of time right now so I haven't been able to keep up with posting new green tips. Everyone has got green tips so I was kind of thinking of moving them to the side line and starting to put some feature articles on the home page and start putting blog posts from different users on the home page.

The biggest things I could use help with:

• writing articles/tips/news/etc.
• ideas for the site
• forum moderators/leaders

Anyone interested?
