Boston-based LogMeIn.com has released a new service called, simply -- Join.me. An it works – simply; and does EXACTLY what it claims – simply. And I like it – simply!
Their website says “ It's an impromptu meeting space that happens wherever, whenever. It's getting a second or third pair of eyes on your presentation from across the hall or across the continent. It's sharing your screen instantly with anyone or everyone to get stuff done, quickly. It's join.me, the last two words in an invitation to collaborate, meet, train, demo or show-off.”
I installed, launched, and connected with another computer in under two minutes. This service is not only SIMPLE (you gotta love that!) it’s also FREE (which I KNOW you’ll love!). Suddenly those agonizing client support calls, not to mention the “family and friends” ones, become manageable and [almost] tolerable. “Simply” launch Join.me (the .ME is the Internet country code top-level domain for Montenegro) and it spawns a unique 9 digit code. “Simply” share the code with the other party (verbally, by SMS, or by email with the quick link on your screen) and viola’ --- you’re sharing your screen. Share YOUR screen for training and presentations or have your “supportee” share THEIR screen so you can take control and and help them through whatever difficulty their experiencing.
Last week I spent 20 minutes trying to get my sister (an MD for cryin’ out loud!) connected via Windows Remote Assistance. Tonight it took me 45 seconds to get connected with my wife --- a lovely woman who, shall we say, is not exactly at the tippy top of the technology food chain. Join.Me is hands down a better service. The only similarity is their pricing --- both are free.
Try this now, when you DON’T need it. And then tuck it away for when you do. You can thank me later.

PS – Thanks to my friend Milt Abramson for the tip on this one. Great catch, Milt!
Join.me May be an Answer to Your The North Face

Did not understand that treasures you the person not to for it not shed, does not need to continue to pay your friendship or love, what is injured in the end is other people cannot be sad for it.

I use join.me on almost a daily basis working with clients. I assist them with technical problems on their websites setting up email or troubleshooting Microsoft Problems. This program allows me and the client to not only be on the same screen but, on the same page. It is very difficult to work on technical problems without being able to see what you are working on. This is a great product. I wish that you were given the ability to select the screen. Lets face it most people have multiple monitors now. They have to be computer literate enough to be able to drag their screens to the correct monitor so that you can view it.

Envy can make oneself backward, self-confidence can make him aspirant!

McCarthy ripped off A Boy and His Dog for The Road?! Ridiculous. Pathetic. Absolutely without foundation, and just another bent nail in the coffin of Harlan's rep and legacy. He makes me so mad. Why doesn't he finish one of his damn unseen opuses? Instead he prefers to yell "Thief, thief," at the end of his days.

Amazing, you can even view the shared screen with an android smartphone!
