Being Smart about the Smart Home
It's hard to avoid "smart home" gear in stores and online, and the right equipment can really make life easier, but is everything a good idea? In a world with so many "influencers" who are under the influence of PR teams, that's that question this site aims to answer honestly.
Our Story
The Story
I'm a bit of a geek, but with a publishing background that concentrates on making things easy to get to grips with. A few years ago I wrote The Complete Guide to Drones. The book went on to be a category bestseller and translated into several languages because it set out to make things easy to understand in a complicated field. While I was writing the updated 2nd edition, I found myself installing a new Nest thermostat and I the idea for my next book – and site – hit me.
