Net Controlled Lighting
Hey,

To keep my hands (and mind) busy between competitions i've decided to work on a big project. I decided to make my room, 'net controlled'. This meaning, I would be able to go onto a site, and via the internet turn my lights on and off. I can figure out the online part, the offline part, but I can't figure out how I would be able to control a switch via a computer port.

Thanks in advance

EDIT: I'm thinking of buying http://www.smarthome.com/1132U.html and re-programming it to be controlled by my program... not theirs.
