App Recommendation: Unified Remote

Update: Clarified that this app runs over a wifi network.

The only way I'll be able to maintain a blog is if I make my posts short and concise. So that's the new plan.

This is a great remote app I've been using a lot for a few months now. I really only use it for two things - controlling movies in VLC and turning off the computer because I'm too lazy to get out of bed after the movie is over. But it can do a lot more.

It's got basic mouse/keyboard input, a remote file system manager, a general media remote (works with iTunes), task manager, and Spotify controls. And that's just the free version.

To get it working simply download and install the Remote server and run it over your WiFi network. Available for Windows for now, Mac and Linux coming soon. The app itself is available for Android and Windows Phone. Sorry iOS users.

TL;DR This is a great remote app. I highly recommend it.
