Wii Street View

Some dude has come up with a way to save the Hikkikomori (otaku who don't go out) by making it possible to control Google Street View with a Wii balance board.
Hes made it so that while you walk on the Wii board, the street view advances forward and if you lean on one side then the screen rotates. This means otaku can get out while staying in doors forever - fantastico!

Hmmmm. Not only is this good for the hikikomori, its also great for folks who don't have time (or money) to go on holiday - you can be in Japan in an instant!

If you want to try this out then you are going to have to break an arm - you need a mac and knowledge with java, jetty and jsonp > intructions here ^^;
