By connecting your computer to your television you can easily watch films and TV programmes stored on your hard drive as well as show off photo slideshows. But your computer is capable of much more than this, and by installing Kylo you can experience the web on a larger screen, avoiding the problems of using a standard web browser on your TV.
Kylo has been designed from the ground up to be specifically optimised for display on a television screen. An on-screen keyboard can be used to enter URLs as well as filling in online forms and the large fonts and buttons means that it is easy to control the browser with a wireless mouse.
A zoom and pan feature enables you to get the most from all of the web sites you visit, and because Kylo is based on Firefox, many of its features should be immediately familiar. Bookmarks can be stored as large icons rather than hard to read text links, so navigation is easy even when viewing your TV from a distance.
Television based web browsing is nothing new, but Kylo puts a whole new spin on the concept. Rather than making do with a standard browser and putting up with its limitations, by turning to Kylo you can experience the web from the comfort of your sofa using a browser that closely resembles a media centre.
Verdict:
A great way to put your television to good use, enabling you to access the internet and experience your favourite web sites on a larger screen.
