MooWee is an application that lets you watch Internet TV content on your television screen using your Nintento Wii game console. You’ll need an Internet broadband connection with a minimum bandwidth of 384kbps as well as an Internet browser on your Wii console in order to hook this up to your television. From there, you can watch shows on your television screen, and use your Wiimote to change channels, etc. The MooWee service is easy enough to use–search for videos, watch the most popular, or view the editors’ picks. If you’re logged in, MooWee will keep track of your history for viewed and searched videos as well. You can also save videos to your favorites, and share them with others. A description of the video will display beneath the clip, showing which video-sharing network it’s been pulled from, and related channels you may enjoy, based on tag words.
The MooWee service can be enjoyed online as well. MooWee is of course an alternative to other set top devices like Apple TV, and other game consoles like the Xbox, which has recently indicated that it would like to work with th BBC on providing content for users. Sony is another company that’s looking to be more competitive in this market, and will be using a collection of devices and services to do so. Other services include Building B and Jaman. StumbleVideo offers a similar service for Nintendo Wii.
