Re: hohm

Synchro - Could you give a bit more explanation, as this looked like spam to me and I nearly deleted it as such.

The website does not look like microsoft URL and so people will probably be hesitant to click on it (I was) then it just looks like a site to harvest email addresses.

What is Hohm?
Microsoft Hohm is a free online beta application that helps you save energy and money. With Microsoft Hohm you can better understand your home energy usage, get recommendations to conserve energy and start saving. As with any recommendation engine, Hohm will provide increasingly more accurate and relevant suggestions for energy conservation as its users contribute home energy input and feedback. One of the objectives during our beta period is to refine our tool and further increase the value our product can offer to you.
