WordPress Wii Edition

December 23rd, 2006 · 4 Comments · gadgets and technology

I just enabled a new plugin for my blog…

WordPress Wii Edition is a plugin that shows an interface designed for the Nintendo Wii when visitors come to your site on a Wii with the Opera browser. Wii’s are automatically detected, there is no configuration needed. Inspired by Alex King’s Mobile Plugin. [David Harper’s Different Things]

The process like most WP plugins took about 30 seconds. After a quick FTP and trip the the WP Admin, I was ready to view on the big screen… Seems to work very well. The Wii browser displays your posts as a text listing similar to mobile viewing, but when you then click on a post, you can see pictures and the full details.

    Will try it on my blog - I thought the browsing on the Wii was OK but I guess this makes the navigation much easier?

    completely easier… It’s simplified like a WAP (mobile) site until you click a link to read a post.

    I can’t expect much traffic through the Wii, but am certainly prepared and geeked out just in case.

    My Nintendo Wii based website runs on Wordpress, so this plugin is great news.
