    So yesterday Google launched their RollIt! Experiment, and I've got to say that this thing is all kinds of cool.

    Smartphone + Computer = Skee Ball Fun!

    You start the experiment site, follow the directions, it syncs your phone over the web and turns it into a WiiMote and then you're playing skee ball with up to three people on the same machine! I spent about a half hour playing around with it earlier today after a 16 hour shift at work and found it to be a great way to burn off steam.

    The hardware I used to run this was a 13in MacBook Pro on WiFi and iPhone 4s on ATT 4G, both running Chrome. Give it a shot, see if you like it, and let me know what you think!

    It's fun, I played it for a little while the other day. I like the idea more than the actual game though. However, I hope they continue games in this vain since I think they could come up with some pretty cool stuff.
