Google turns mobile phones into remote controls
July 1st, 2008
Our sister-site MediaMentalism.com, which is undergoing something of a renaissance (“about time,” somebody shouted!) has news of a new Google app that enables a mobile phone to stream music, pictures and videos between your PC and any suitably-equipped home device such as your TV or Hi-Fi.
You can use your phone to select videos from your PC, and then wirelessly stream them onto your TV, all via the comfort of your armchair. Effectively, your mobile phone becomes your new remote control.
Of course, not all mobile phones are capable of doing this, but a surprising number are. Read on for more details of what’s involved.
