The Smith’s Place
What’s new with Ken, Stella, Emily, Matthew, and the rest of the family.

So run that ye may obtain.

February 20th, 2007 by Ken

One step more, and the race is ended;
One word more, and the lesson’s done;
One toil more, and a long rest follows
At set of sun.

Who would fail, for one step withholden?
Who would fail, for one word unsaid?
Who would fail, for a pause too early?
Sound sleep the dead.

One step more, and the goal receives us;
One word more, and life’s task is done;
One toil more, and the Cross is carried
And sets the sun.

Christina Georgina Rossetti, before 1886.

Wii based Web Apps

February 12th, 2007 by Ken

wii2.jpgPeople are already getting into creating Wii based applications that you can hit from your Wii browser. Check out the following:

http://www.finetune.com/wii/ - Listen to music through your Wii. Simply hit the site, or go to www.finetune.com on your computer to create playlists of music, and it plays that music for you. Totally cool. Only bad part is each playlist has 50 songs in it and will loop after that. Still cool.

http://www.orb.com – Install this app on your home computer and you can stream pictures, videos etc to your Wii. This is awesome, because you can load a large number of pics and then show slideshows, all from your home computer.

http://www.redkawa.com/sofatube/ - Refomatted YouTube for the Wii

http://mapwii.com – Maps Wii owners near you, so you can add them to your Console list.

http://www.wiicade.com – Cool flash games playable from the Wii

http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/games/wii/ - Another flash games site.

Let me know if you find anything else like this.
