Following up on our previous post about the problems of ‘leaking electricity,’ we saw this post on PSFK, a ‘trends & ideas’ blog and one of our favorite sites. Dan Gould reports on the ‘Remote Controlled Socket.’ Remote controls have long been game-changers for the lazy. We’ve all been there, right? You’re on the couch, unable to find locate the remote, stuck watching Married With Children (I’m sorry, I just never thought that show was funny). Sure, you like the idea of changing the channel, but it’s so nice here on the couch. Similarly, you might think about reaching behind televisions, under desks, behind computers, contorting your body in an effort to unplug your appliances to avoid ‘leaking electricity,’ but how many of us actually take the time. Remote Controlled Sockets might be for you.
