What works with the Wii Remote Plus (black Wii)?

I'm completely new to the Wii, and bought one for Homebrew purposes only. I used the codemii file that was in another thread to get the wireless remote to work in the Homebrew Channel. I read that only apps updated within past few months will work, so my question is:

what do I need to use the apps on the black Wii?
what apps DO work with the Wii Remote Plus?

I'm learning the terminology as I go, so if you use a Wiibrew-specific term, let me know what exactly it is. Thanks for any help!

Usually apps updated in the past few month will have a release entry posted in [www.wiibrew.org]
particularly;
[www.wiibrew.org]
[www.wiibrew.org]
[www.wiibrew.org]
[www.wiibrew.org]
[www.wiibrew.org]
[www.wiibrew.org]

And I did also a recompile of [www.wiibrew.org] which would not be listed there since nothing really changed in it
