Topic- Is there a way to do this? Just asking, just in case I don't have my SD when I want to hack...

Do you have the homebrew chanel installed?
If so you can use the internet to send a dol or elf file to your wii.

In the bottomright of the homebrew chanel is a little gecko that checks if you have the USBGecko connected, I don't know but maybe you can send files to the homebrewchanel with the USBGecko? I never tried.

Yes, a USB Gecko can be used on the Homebrew Channel to run homebrew applications.

I think that you can do it through Wiiload, but I'm not quite sure.  I know that I have seen YouTube videos of the Homebrew Channel loading applications from a USB Gecko.

You can send files (dols) to the HBC directly via LAN using wiiload or similar application. HBC has a server thread always up waiting for connection. You can tell when it's up watching the two little icons on the bottom right. One is USB Gecko, one is LAN. When the lan Icon is white, you can send file to HBC, using the IP address of the wii (the HBC tell you that)
