March 30, 2007, Newsletter Issue #58: What is Remote Desktop Sharing?
Tip of the Week
Using a remote desktop as a demonstration platform has become increasingly common in today's world of near-ubiquitous broadband internet connectivity. We can now use a remote desktop to give a demonstration, send data between two remote computers as in a remote desktop download, or even provide remote assistance to a friend's computer. Generally, a “remote desktop” is a computer platform in a remote location that appears to be local. For example, if I were running a remote desktop on your computer as I types this, you would see a Word window open with letters forming across the screen as if my fingers were typing on your keyboard, and if my computer were sitting where yours now is. If you're interested in trying it out for yourself, grab RealVNC, TightVNC, or any one of the other desktop sharing software out there and take it for a test run.
