Found a GREAT New Tool (SharedView)

Connect. Show. Share.
Talk about collaboration!
This app allowed me, James (co-worker) and Page Brooks (across town) to all share my desktop. I allowed Page to take control of my computer. He opened applications, change documents, and modified queries. Meanwhile, James and I watched.
Then I changed the setting so they could only see one application (Visual Studio); not my entire desktop. I did not want them to see any of my top-secret applications I had open…
After a little playing, Page shared his Visual Studio session on his computer. When I connected, I noticed something… there was a method in his code called “ThisCodeSucks”.

Fine Print: Page was quick to realize that I was the one that changed his code![]()
This is a great tool to help your wife at home when she is having computer issues… or if a friend calls you because you are “Mr. Computer Club“.
