Desktop Sharing for Demonstration Purposes
Do you want to run a demonstration on a computer, give a presentation, or simply show a colleague how to do something but are in a different state, country, or even continent? Using desktop sharing software, you can. Desktop sharing has become a standard method of online collaboration within the computer industry as it allows teams that are geographically separated to give online demos to each other, but the technique has yet to be taken advantage of in the mainstream. To get a feel for how desktop sharing works, there are free programs available, such as logmein and TightVNC, and for a pretty modest price your organization can get a more state-of-the-art remote desktop control manager that not only allows basic desktop sharing for demonstration purposes, but also allows your helpdesk to remotely control an employee's computer that needs some fixing up.
