This is a good idea. Its perfect for an entertainment center or computer. I've been thinking of doing something very similar but with an extension cord and actual light switch. I'd just mount the light switch to the desk somewhere to turn the power on to all the computer stuff. My computer uses 9W when off, having a switch like this would save me ~6 kWh a month.
