I used MisterHouse for about a year. Used it for turning on my Christmas lights at home from work and used voice command stuff to turn the lights on and off.

I found that coding my own functions for it was not so fun. I think they need to do a version 2, coding from the ground up. There seemed to be lots of hacky stuff in the base code.

But if you can get it running, I do recommend it... it's hours of worthless fun.
