With Clik, Your Smartphone Can Control Screens Everywhere

You've probably heard of Kik Messenger, a phone messaging app with the backing of Sequoia Capital. It turns out Kik was just the beginning of the company's plans ? today it's launching Clik, which is even more impressive. Put simply, Clik can turn your phone into a remote control for any screen with a browser. CEO Ted Livingston demonstrated the app for me earlier this week. Here's how it works: You point your desktop browser at ClikThis.com, which generates a unique QR code. Then you open the Clik iPhone or Android app, aim the camera at the screen, and the app uses the code to figure out which device you're trying to control. Once it's synced up, you can select YouTube videos from your phone, and they'll play on the screen.
