When I first got the Amazon Echo, it was a pretty cool device that you could talk to when you are bored but there were limits to the device as I was used to doing complex things with my Google Now already. Of course, I also find playing music rather convenient, especially when I am doing dishes, I can turn on music without bothering to dry my hands, I really like that. But at the price of near $0, is this gadget worth it?
Everything changed after I added some of my Belkin WeMo switches to it. WeMo switches are basically switches you can hook up any of your 110V appliances up to 15 amps and control them using the WeMo app on Android or Apple’s iOS. Now, I can control all of the lights upstairs in my house, my studio lights, even my PC and backup servers, all using voice commands.
In my opinion, home automation with voice commands on the Amazon Echo is actually the coolest feature. With a couple WeMOs and Amazon Echo, you could have your home completely voice-controlled. Now, that’s really cool and Amazon Echo also supports other types of Home Automation gadgets, you can check out the link here.
