The best way to experience Zinc, in my opinion, is sitting back on the couch with your legs up, enjoying a nice cold beverage. But most of us don't have media center remote controls, so we have to deal with finicky wireless keyboards and mice or actually get up and walk over to our media PC to change what's playing.
If you own a Wii, all of that can change. With a simple flick of the wrist, you can navigate through Zinc's UI and browse all of your favorite movies and TV shows. How is this possible?
First, a little tech talk: Wiimotes communicate with the Nintendo Wii over bluetooth, a wireless communication protocol. Since bluetooth is an industry standard, many computers have built-in bluetooth receivers. Even if they don't have one built-in, USB bluetooth dongles can be purchased for less than $20. And that's all you really need for this hack.
