Quentin Hardy wrote about Nest for the New York Times Bits blog:

The device also collects enough data that Nest can start to draw from really large data sets on consumption and correlate that knowledge with information  from other sources, like weather forecasts, to make a more powerful product.

Each Nest thermostat “is as powerful as a high-end smartphone, and they communicate with each other inside a house,” says Tony Fadell, Nest’s founder and chief executive. “We can gather all that data, mix it with other data we store in the cloud, and push different algorithms to different houses to see how people react.”
