Upgrading a place with home automation technology. This will usually include a whole-house audio system, network-based thermostat control, touch screen computer interfaces, home surveillance, and motion-sensitive lighting.
I just finished technovating my house. I can access my music and movies from anywhere in the house, check up on my home security from work, and even control the thermostat over the internet!
I figured out how to install editing software on the computer, and was actually able to import video to it and use it for it's intended purpose! It was an utter sense of technelation. In days past, it would be the equivalent of not knowing how to use your VCR, but soemhow getting it to stop flashing 12:00, and getting your favorite show to record.
