Google Media Server is a powerful widget for Google Desktop that allows you to stream content seamlessly to compatible media devices on your local network. Utilizing the UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol, it enables effortless communication between devices. With Google Media Server, you can enjoy movies from your computer on your living room TV via next-gen consoles like PlayStation 3 and Wii. Share photos from your Picasa album to a digital photo frame, or stream YouTube videos to your iPhone or PSP. The intuitive configuration panel lets you manage slides and select shared files easily.

I've gone back and forth on Google Media Server. Streaming is often spot on, but the interface can be a bit clunky. I’m glad I have it, but hoping for a smoother experience moving forward!
