What is screen sharing? When you need to look at someone’s computer and you are at different locations there are tools that allow you to connect.

I use Crossloop a lot with my IT guy. Whenever there is a problem I allow his computer to take over my mouse and he can troubleshoot all kinds of issues.

On the other hand, if you are trying to help someone figure out something with their computer, maybe looking at images or writing a letter, you can share easy and free tools such as Join.me.  Sometimes it’s easier to see the other person’s screen than to try and describe a situation.

I can use either of these simple tools to offer training and support when you are learning how to manage your new WordPress website.

This is not supposed to happen guys.  (more…)
