Enhance your Wii's browser with Wiiminder

by Josh Lowensohn

Wiiminder is a site that adds functionality to your Wii browser. Navigating to Wiiminder.com on your Wii provides you with multiple tabs, a search tool, an address bar, and a really neat drag and drop favorites folder that's much snappier than the one that ships with the Opera browser. Best of all, all the buttons disappear when not in use, saving precious screen real estate. There's also a tie-in with Finetune, the Internet radio service I looked at earlier this month.

Wiiminder takes care of several issues I found on my comparison of the Opera browser to the Playstation 3's. The standout being tabs -- something that was mysteriously overlooked by Opera, the pioneers of the browser tab.

There are a few other neat little tidbits covered in the video below:
