Green is all the rage. And one more way to go green is simple as pie. Cyber-Rain is rapidly expanding as a premiere "smart" sprinkler controller. Based out of the Greater Los Angeles area, Cyber-Rain can help to save thousands of (much needed) gallons of water every year, simply by not using excess water for lawn watering. And it's not as expensive as you might think - many water districts are offering generous rebates for those who purchase such tech-savvy sprinkler controller mechanisms. Learn more at www.cyber-rain.com and blog.cyber-rain.com
