Home Automation via Google Desktop
If I can control Winamp from Google Desktop why not some of the lights and other devices in my house as well?
Most recent screen shot of my working X10 Plugin for Google Desktop. You can setup and name all of your House/Device combo's to whatever you like, then double click in the Sidebar and it will send the relevant command.
Once I get it to a respectable state I plan to submit it to Google officially.

Sweet as hell, thats awesome. I know you've been playing with X10's for years now, this is a sweet add-on.
Does Google provide open API's to the Desktop Search? How did you integrate X10 control with it?
Cheers!

Sounds like a good idea, I'd love to download a copy! I've got my house wired for x10, this would be a nice add on! Please put up a beta link so we can give it a try.
