Using a chrome extension was a brilliant idea, man! I don't recall the name of it, but there was another app that was along the same idea of using your phone as a remote. It was a neat idea, but you had to install and maintain a separate Java server on your computer to listen for the phone's commands. It made it far more pain that it was worth.
Do you have a write up on the tech behind it? Are you guys looking for help on adding additional sites? :)
Nice job!
- tomatohs 13y agoThanks. I played with many of these apps and hated running those Java servers. I'll be making a presentation about the technology behind the app at HackNY in NYC. If you can't make it to that, I'll post the video / notes on the blog. I'm planning on open sourcing the extension so people can create their own remotes for any site out there. Also, "you guys" is just me!
