Nest | The Learning Thermostat | Home
Turns out the link from yesterday is designed by an ex-apple guy…go figure :)
What’s it like for a guy who worked at Apple to start making thermostats? A lot like this:
“So what are you working on lately?” a friend asks over lunch.
“I started a new company. We make thermostats.”
They chuckle, take a bite of their salad, “No, seriously. What are you doing?”
“I’m serious. Thermostats.”
They put down their fork, look concerned.
That is Tony Fadell, who’s name you may remember as one of leading forces behind the iPod at Apple. Well, he has started a new company and introduced Nest, a smart thermostat that learns your heating a cooling preferences and adjusts accordingly. Plus, it is wi-fi enabled and you can control it with your iPhone. Looks really slick and has the added side benefit of saving you money on your energy bill.
