Good news!Google's putting out a way for users to track their home electricity use from their computer. Check it out at the New York Times' "Bits" blog.
Thing is, you need a "smart grid" for it to work, so it's going to be a while before you actually get one in your house.
It's like the dashboard readout on the Prius: constantly giving you feedback about your energy use & efficiency.

Your N.Y. Times link just goes to the jpg. Should be: http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/02/10/googling-your-home-electricity-usage/
I wonder where this is available now?
Fixed it -- thanks for letting me know.
Where can we get the Smart Grid now? Is is for sale?
