More than once I have stumbled into my bedroom in the dark because I didn't plan ahead and leave a light on. this not only wastes power, it is inconvenient. So when the extra credit project for MEGR3171 I decided it would be simple enough to use a photon to monitor the status of the lamp and use IFTTT to control the lamp via a WeMo switch. In the future I plan to have the system automate itself. I want it to tell if I am coming home, and if it is dark out, turn on automatically.
