Web producer, writer, online media cultist. That's how I roll.

Keep Up With RSS Feeds On Your Nintendo Wii

Everyone knows that your phone is now a video camera, that your TV and computer are melding together, and that your dog is really more robot than mammal these days.

Okay, one of those might be not so much. But what does feel like science fiction made real is that you can now access Google Reader with your Nintendo Wii gaming platform. So in between tennis and Zelda sessions you can rest your Wii elbow and catch up on your RSS feeds.

On a serious note, it’s extraordinary that the computer may see serious competition in the near term as a platform for accessing the Internet. And meanwhile there seems to be a serious drive to produce remarkably cheap laptops, as low as $10 in fact if Indian manufacturers are successful.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I must get back to checking out my cereal box-based comic book reader.

Update: A kid talks about the wonders of the Wii browser.
