Moods: iTunes + hue

I bought the hue system the day it was released, but the app leaves a lot to be desired. I also use iTunes a lot, and have speakers or Apple TV using AirPlay in every room (5 total). The combo is pretty awesome for both relaxation and entertainment... but not perfect...

So I decided to whip up a little web app that sets all my lights to a certain color (or flashing 'club-mode' for party time) and starts playing a playlist in iTunes over AirPlay, all with one button press (okay, two). Obviously this is a pretty custom solution right now. No plans to release it commercially, but may post a guide when I get everything working smoothly. The next step will be to integrate it with my LED controller that lights my home bar :-)
