Do you REALLY think most consumers care "where the power is going."?
Not likely.

And so what? Is someone NOT going to use their dryer because they see a spike on a graph?

What a complete waste of time. Google is as bad, if not worse, than M$ in trying to be in every thread of people?s lives. The LAST thing I want is them connected to my electric meter.

sad
