Stumbleupon Video on Wii

After last.tv, now also StumbleUpon Video has set up a special channel for the Wii, i.e. under the Opera browser. StumbleUpon Video has created several channels based on subjects (tags?), such as animals, games, etc. Then the video's are show in the Opera browser. The video's are taken from various sources, such as Youtube. Users can skip video's and approve or disapprove of a video. Interestingly this has been done through the arrow buttons on the Wiimote. I assume that this helps in selecting the videos that I like. I still have to figure out whether these recommendations are any good.

I have to play with it a bit more, but it looks interesting. It just shows what you can do when you marry the web and a television. It is a way to create personalised TV channels with publicly available video's.
