I’ve just discovered the delights of VNC. Ever since I got broadband at home, I’ve wanted to fully control my PC from home. I played around with something called RemotelyAnywhere, but the remote control part never really worked well for me.
Well guess what? VNC is free, simple and worked first time, out of the installer so to speak. Within minutes my brother was remote controlling my deskktop. Sadly he runs MAC OS X and it isn’t yet available for that. You can even download client packages for mobile phones etc.
Obviously, this just allows me to tinker with my machine all day when I’m at work and should be concentrating on other things, but who cares?
Might double check on security issues though…
