Wiiblogging

On December 24, 2006, in Computers, by peterb

Surely, I must be one of the first people to post to their blog from a Nintendo Wii. I’ve only found one other Wiiblog entry so far.

To type, you use the Wiimote like a laser pointer. It’s a bit ponderous. But editing is quite easy.

Hmmm. I wonder how much work it would be to attach little Mii icons to each post…

The user-agent comes across as “Opera/9.00 (Nintendo Wii; U; ; 1309-9; en)”

Happy festivus, everyone.

    Heh. That’s pretty cool in a “look, I can use a hammer to drive a screw” kind of way.

    I’d have already done the same, but my Wii is hooked up to an age old 27″ Sony TV via a composite video cable. Browsing the web is seriously unpleasant.

    Ah shucks, I would have been the first if my internet connection had held out. Wii Opera does not like unstable connections, not at all….
