How to control music and video on the Web with a wave of your hand
December 28, 2012 by Amara D. Angelica
Yeah, like all the time — especially because my calls come in via Skype so callers often get a blast of a YouTube video or Spotify song, so I …
Uh, OK, but how does it work?
Cool, so how do I get it?
“We are so excited and pleased to release a new version [of Flutter] that allows you to control music & videos in Google Chrome using gestures — just in time for the holiday season. Flutter now supports YouTube, Pandora, Grooveshark & Netflix. We will be updating AppStore version in early 2013. For now direct download the new version.”
Nice, I thank you, my callers will thank you!

I will cyborgize this on myself.
“Control music and video”? I will monitor and control the whole Internet.

You sound like Lawn Mower Boy.

Duly impressed and amused. I’ll probably even still keep it on when my Leap device comes in, just for those occasions when I’m too far away to use the Leap.
Although I may have to change how I scratch my face. Just skipped a track in Pandora.

So, I was having a pretty sad day. You know, the one where nothing gets done and you’re depressed. So I see an app that supposedly uses my webcam to browse. And I think “HAHA good one lets see how bad you fail in my dark room because I’m feeling cynical so far today.” I was then using my hands in the air to browse spotify.. Flawlessly. I can’t really see my hands, but apparently my webcam can….Wow, I’m having a better day now. That was amazing.
