How many web-connected devices do you have at home?

[Edwin]

I'm curious how many web-connected gadgets you have at home?

My count is: 18 (I was quite surprised it was that high, which is what prompted this thread)

NOTE
- Please don't count infrastructure (modem, routers, powerline ethernet etc)
- Stuff that's networked but not online (e.g. a printer) also doesn't count
- I'm talking about your whole household, not just you personally

Im sure im missing something but cant think what it is, so 14 for me although probably less as they are not all connected 24 hours a day.

4 x laptops
3 x phones (was zero mobiles phones about a year and a half ago)
1 x TV (not a smart TV but gets internet via the PlayStation, that count?)
1 x PlayStation

I included stuff that "could" connect, like Kindles and smartphones (they're not connected all the time)

50-100.

Looks irrational - if not a little absurd David. I know you have an iPad in every room including the bogs, but...

21.

Actually took the effort to count and come up with a realistic figure Unlike some.......

We have 32, mostly game consoles and hand held devices, but that's what you get having 4 kids.

The 50-100 above could be easily done if you had lots of mobile phones, tv's, wireless radiators, cameras and computers.

It quickly adds up with multiple WeMo style devices and other devices that can be managed via IP. Well into double digits in total of Apple TV, Fire TV, Roku, ChromeCast, Sat>IP devices, some games consoles etc. There's definitely over 100 double sockets (both in view and out of view). It's quite a bit of walking between floors to do things otherwise, which would become tiresome. I won't bore with further details.

No, I'd much rather sell and move.

Around 30 ..including 2 wifi lightbulbs that you control with an app.

My initial thought was about 8 or 9, but I keep thinking of more and more and I'm up to about 20 now.

It's remarkable isn't it? Easy to see how the "Internet of Things" is going to creep up on us, because in many ways it already is here!

I was slightly honoured that your above was your first post on this forum since July 2015. ;-)

I was waiting for that comment - not that you haven't sorely tempted me David, in the past few months. Actually, I lost interest after the handover but the place seems to be less gaseous now - more substance and direction.
