There's an App for That

With the LuDela Smart Candle, you can now light a candle with your smartphone.  The flame is real and you can read about the technology here.  Perhaps my favorite part of the story is how voice integration is planned for the future.  I hope they will have a recording of Jim Morrison singing 'Light My Fire.'

If we can't even light a candle anymore, what else will soon become automated?
