IT and Computer Nerds...

[phade]

Quick question - I want to do a screenshare with someone. I can do it at work via Lync but it's not a work thing. No idea how I could do that on my own computer. Obviously don't want to spend money on it.

 

Any options?

Invite the person over and watch it together - good bonding time.  lol

It's easy...First you pop open a beer.

Next you log on to DORKZ.

When in DORKZ, upload the framscuttle TWICE.

After that, click on wackdoodle and crossload the fuzzbumper.

Once the fuzzbumper crossloads, sidestep into beenybopper.

As soon as beenybopper metabolizes, shut down the porksloop and re-boot the fernbender.

After that, pop open another beer and try gain. Nothing to it. Glad to help.

Remote Desktop Connection comes standard with Windows.  We use Bomgar at my work but that's a paid app.

Ok, knew there were some options out there! Thanks!

Join Me and Team viewer can do the trick.

Thanks, Joe...

I knew that SOMEONE on this forum would appreciate my vast knowledge of computer technology.

I thought you were joking until you said reboot. Every IT guy I have every known uses that step.

have you heard of webex?

Webex and gotomeeting

Last I knew, Webex and GoToMeeting are paid services may work short term on a free trial.

 

Remote Desktop is basically turned-of by default on most Windows based computers, and you would need to be on the same network ( like both connected to your home Wifi).

 

Best options would be LogMeIn free, Join.Me, or TeamViewer.

 

I have used all three to assist someone I know who lives a few hundred miles away at no cost to me.

 

I used a paid service for work.

In looking up info for something else. I discovered another option if you both have Facebook accounts.

 

VNC has an app call deskhop that you can use through an invite from Facebook.

I believe only certain features require a subscription, like video chat.
