The best tool ever when you’re on the road
I spent this past weekend in Denver with the family, and I would have been lost without Live Mesh. You create an account and add computers to your network. When I worked on my home computer, any file in my shared folders was updated on the Live Mesh site. When I signed onto my laptop computer, the files were automatically updated.
While I was on the airplane and working offline, the new changes were stored, and as soon as I connected to the internet again, all the files were updated on all the connected computers.
In addition, I used Live Mesh to remotely control my home computer. I could even copy a file from home and paste it to my desktop.
It rocks. And it’s free!

Wow – so could this work for my home computer and school computer?

Yep! And if you’re at a different computer that’s not in your network, you can access the copies online, and they’ll be updated as well.

How long have you been using it? I’m looking for something like this. I’ve been road-testing “My Dropbox”. If you just started with it when you posted this, are you still happy with it?
