Comcast has given one of Issaquahs more notable technophiles the gift of a smarter house.

Resident Chris Pirillo, CEO and founder of LockerGnome Inc., a network of blogs, forums and online communities, also reviews technology to a wide audience through his YouTube channel. With his wide expertise and exposure to hundreds of thousands of followers and subscribers, he is often asked to try out products and provide feedback.

Comcast decided to take Pirillo up on that and offered him the chance to get outfitted with a new platform called XFINITY Home, a home-security device that ties together home devices, offering a glimpse into the approaching future of home automation.

By Peter Clark Chris Pirillo shows off the technology of XFINITY Home as he controls the lighting in his house with the Comcast developed phone app.

I think it was just serendipity, Pirillo said of the team-up. Im living this anyway, and if I have the opportunity to give feedback that will make more people happy, Ill gladly do that.

Linking everything together
