Lightbulb new idea

ok, I was going to say this is a nue idea but I thought I'd open this to anybody capable (i'm not), as his plate's pretty full at the moment.

I had this idea the other day when I was twiddling my thumbs for 15mins waiting for a light to turn off. I've been putting in alot of motion sensing light switches these days, but recently put some in a restaurants bathrooms. being this is a bad place for light to be randomly turning off, I had to make sure they stayed on the correct time.
Originally I was thinking someone should make a program that watches the camera for light/dark, much like the motion detecting webcam apps for pc's.

but then a noob's thread caught my attention, he was asking about the ("white dot above U & I") light sensor on the keyboard....
duh, how simple, why didn't I think of that, oh wait, I did, just forgot we had that hardware.

sooo, does anybody else have any other uses for an app that could log/sms/email/exe when the light level reaches a certain point?
anybody capable of creating such a thing?
