I have just published version 0.4 of energy@home. It includes Twitter integration and a new graph which shows how much energy was used for each hour of the day.

A preview of my part time project energy@home with Twitter integration.

As you can see the value for total energy used is currently way off but it’s a preview of what’s to come.

There are two options: tweet hourly summary and daily summary. These can be turned on and off. I am using python-twitter library which does not use oauth authentication so the client description comes up as API which is not nice.

I have formally uploaded and started using Google Code to host my energy monitor I’m using / developing.

It has been released under the GPL license so feel free to take a look at my messy code and leave some constructive criticism.
