Buyers may someday ask you: “Is this home powered by Android?”
The ability to control a home via smartphone may not be too distant in the future, experts say. Google is setting the way for home owners to use its Android software to control everyday household items, everything from turning on and off the lights, the dishwasher, a lamp, and more.
Google’s Android@Home software would be built into appliances and light bulbs so it can wirelessly communicate with Android devices. For example, LightingScience this year released LED light bulbs that can connect with Android devices to turn off the lights without having to get up to flip the switch. Google also introduced the Open Accessory toolkit, which will help developers create other everyday household items that are compatible with Android devices.
“Everything should be Android-ified,” says Andy Rubin, head of Android. “We should just take it to new levels. It’s no longer something that people will go to the store to buy and then bring to their home or bring to their office. It’s something that will actually bridge those things.”

Spring Market Conditions Bode Well For Buyers
Optimism about the housing market isn’t quite sweeping the nation, but Americans remain sold on the value of home ownership at a good time to be bullish about buying a home.
With home sales and prices still falling, the spring could shape up as an opportune time to make a deal.
The housing downturn hasn’t shaken consumers’ resolve to consider home ownership an integral part of an American Dream, even among home owners with homes that have lost value.
The eighth quarterly “Allstate-National Journal Heartland Monitor Poll: The American Dream” revealed that nearly nine out of 10 homeowners say they would buy their same homes again.
Among those with homes with lost value, the same percentage said they would buy their home again. Also, seven of 10 Americans say they would advise a friend or family member to buy a home as a long-term asset. The spring could be a good time to take that advice.
Existing-home sales, completed transactions that include single-family, townhomes, condominiums and co-ops, dropped 9.6 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.88 million in February from 5.40 million in January. February 2010 sales were 2.8 percent below the pace in February 2010, according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR).
The slow sales pushed the median price down to $156,100, the lowest level since February 2002, setting the stage for spring bargains.
Some experts say the housing market is years away from a full blown recovery and the home buyer tax credit is kaput. However, improvements in employment and manufacturing and other economic sectors, bargain home prices and affordable interest rates could light a fire under buyers who’ve been sitting on the fence.
“Housing affordability conditions have been at record levels and the economy has been improving, but home sales are being constrained by the twin problems of unnecessarily tight credit, and a measurable level of contract cancellations from some appraisals not supporting prices negotiated between buyers and sellers,” said Lawrence Yun NAR chief economist.
The Allstate survey of 1,000 Americans also found:
· Buying a home was the best investment among 24 percent, behind “investing in retirement savings” (38 percent), but ahead of “saving money in the bank” (20 percent), and “investing in the stock market” (6 percent).
· A majority, 58 percent of those who believe the housing crisis will remain a serious problem would still recommend buying a home.
· Americans are evenly split on whether the federal government should continue policies to encourage home ownership at the same level (46 percent) or scale them back because they cost too much (46 percent).
· More than half of Americans (52 percent) blame the housing crisis on banks and lending institutions for misleading borrowers and approving bad loans, while 32 percent blame people who bought homes and took out mortgages they couldn’t afford, and only 12 percent blame government policies that encouraged too many people to try to own their own homes.
“Owning a home continues to be the bedrock of the American Dream – even as incomes are down, jobs are scarce and families struggle to make ends meet,” said Thomas J. Wilson , Allstate chairman, president and chief executive officer.
“Homeownership is viewed positively by the vast majority of Americans as both a place to raise a family and a sound investment,” he added.
