Remot.io is a simple, no install controller for html based presentations. Well, actually it can be used with any page that listens for keyboard events or has a javascript API. The remot.io configuration can easily be extended to call a custom method depending on the page the bookmarklet has been run on.

2012-06-12 - initial release

• Triggering keyboard events only works as expected in Chrome and Firefox. Have not been able to set the keyCode on a keyboard event in Safari and have not done any testing in IE yet. Ideas, solutions, contributions are welcome! Just visit http://github.com/suhajdab/remot.io and share your insight.
• Remot.io has full support for the Reveal.js presentation framework meaning it can control it on any receiver browser. This is thanks to Reveal's clever api, so remot.io doesn't have to rely on triggering keyboard events.
• The Impress.js presentation framework and the slideshare.com site are supported only on the two above mentioned receiver browsers.

Remove outline from mobile controller url input

Add status indicator to controlled page's script

Config socket.io to use :80

See if this makes socket.io work with nginx and therefore allow auto run of server

Pebble App

First of all thanks for this service!

I always dreaming about controlling my reveal with a pebbleapp.

I really think it can be possible with your service:

• install pebbleapp
• configure "token" (or whatever is used to synchronize)
• profit!

:)

There is simply.js and pebble.js I will look at it... But I'm really newbie in JS :/

Make URL to controller more readable
