Here is an interesting design on home automation using Twitter from http://matthewmorey.com/. The setup utilizes Twitter to communicate with a variety of electronic devices. There is a computer with access to Twitter that looks at the Tweets and parses them looking for commands. Attached to the computer are different types of devices such as an LCD display, a thermometer and a light. The setup can take a picture and post it online, display text on the LCD, figure out how bright it is in the office and more.
You can find the twitter page here:
