Who said I only write snarky posts?
I came across a free program (I can’t remember where I saw it first - I thought it was on Chris’ site but I can’t find any reference to it there now) called iRed Lite and I love it!
The idea is very simple - take the IR control which ships with all new Macs and is only useful for Frontrow, and add extra functionality to it so it can actually be useful, day-to-day!
I decided to use it in conjunction with Keynote, Apple’s presentation software, when I was giving my talks to Microsoft Belgium last week.
Previously I had used my bluetooth mouse to move the slides forward but I found this to be flaky (didn’t always work) - using the IR control was flawless.
Thank you iRed Lite



That’s one for the bookmark file.

Well, if you’re going to make an important presentation, you may as well use a decent presentation app, I suppose.
